Colorado State University General Catalog The Colorado State University campuses are located in or near the city of Fort Collins. The county seat of Larimer County, this community of approximately 126,000 is located 65 miles north of Denver on Interstate 25, and 5 miles south of Cheyenne, Wyoming. The city is served by railroad-freight and bus lines. Transportation from Fort Collins to Denver International Airport is provided by shuttle service. At the foot of the Rocky Mountains, Fort Collins is within an hour s drive of such major recreational areas as Estes Park, Red Feather Lakes, Horsetooth Reservoir, and several mountain parks, including the 790,000-acre Roosevelt National Forest and Rocky Mountain National Park. A wide variety of recreational activities is fostered not only by the presence of such areas but also by the climate in the Fort Collins region. Located at an elevation of 5,000 feet, Fort Collins has a clear, dry atmosphere, over 00 days of sunshine and generally pleasant temperatures throughout the year. The summer temperature ranges from an average high of 85 to an average low of 52 ; the winter temperature ranges from an average high of 2 to an average low of 1. Indicative of the cultural life of Fort Collins are the museum, the public library, and civic symphony. An active University calendar guest speakers, art exhibits, theater, cinema, concerts adds to community life. This broad spectrum of cultural and outdoor recreational facilities, the excellent climate, and the mountain surroundings contribute toward making Fort Collins an ideal university setting.

PRESIDENT S MESSAGE Welcome to Colorado State University! Our University is committed to excellence in learning. We aim to provide learning opportunities that are accessible beyond the walls of the campus and to ensure all students enjoy the special benefits of studying at a major research university in labs or in field experiences working in close collaboration with faculty. This general catalog can offer insight into the breadth and depth of the educational offerings at our University, but descriptions of courses and majors only tell part of the story. Colorado State offers the kind of educational experience rarely found at major international research institutions. Here, we strive to create a challenging handson learning environment, where students have the opportunity to learn from top scholars and then put their classroom knowledge to work in unique and interesting ways. Whenever I meet with our students, I marvel at the stories they tell about their experiences inside and outside the classroom running a real investment fund through our College of Business, traveling to Antarctica to conduct environmental research with faculty in the natural resources, supervising the operations of our Emmywinning campus television station, working in a laboratory in the biomedical sciences, studying at our Pingree Park mountain campus, and much more. Their affection for this university and their pride in the work they re doing here are the real testament to the quality of a Colorado State education. This catalog is one of the best and most useful tools to aid you in determining your own path of excellence at Colorado State University. Again, welcome! Sincerely, Larry Edward Penley President i
