In 2010, the university consisted of nine colleges and schools and offered over 150 academic programs and enrolled 29,952 students.Twelve Nobel Laureates, nine MacArthur Fellows, and 18 astronauts have been affiliated with CU-Boulder as students, researchers, or faculty members in its history.

  The university received nearly $454 million in sponsored research in 2010 to fund programs like the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics, and 

The Colorado members of the NCAA Division

he Engineering Center is located on the North-East side of campus, on the corner of Colorado and Regent. The Engineering Center consists of departments which are: Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Chemical and Biological Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and 

 This formed the basis of a unified style which was used in the design of fifteen other buildings between 1921

The sandstone used in the construction of nearly all the buildings on campus was selected from a a variety of front range mountain quarries. In 2med the Boulder campus as one of the most beautiful college campuses in the United States.

Mechanical Engineering. Rankings published by the US World and News report ranked the Undergraduate Engineering Programs at 34th overall and 19th among public engineering programs nationwide. Graduate Engineering Programs at CU are ranked 34thll and 20th among public engineering programs nationwide.

 This architecturally distinctive and modern center is home to the nation's largest  centrifuge, ion-implantation and microwave-propagation facilities, spectrometers, electron and other microscopes, and a structural analysis facility.

The es students hands on experience by connecting them with faculty and industrial advisers on sponsored projects. CU Engineering is also part outreach, programs for students and teachers at the elementary, middle and high math and engineering lessons and activities 

CU Engineering houses many signature programs. The Integrated Teaching and Learning Program gives students hands on design experience in the award 34sign Center within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder.
