Science Discovery STEM Research Experience (Commuter)

As one of 34 U.S. public research institutions belonging to the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU)—and the only member in the Rocky Mountain region—our goal at CU Boulder is to directly affect Colorado communities through collaborative research, innovation and entrepreneurship. Our faculty, staff and students work with the broader community to establish unique connections that have lasting outcomes—both across Colorado and around the world. The University of Colorado Boulder offers several college-level summer opportunities for rising sophomores, juniors and seniors in high school. The programs and courses are designed to provide you with a rewarding and enriching academic experience. Many academically talented students, like you, are looking forward to their college years and want to get an early start through AP or IB courses as well as by taking summer classes on a university campus. Use three weeks this summer to experience a college campus, perhaps one they are considering for their future studies. Experience a course in your desired college major or explore another area of interest. Take classes from our institution's faculty. Use our many facilities such as our computer labs, our libraries, our rec center, our dining halls, and our student support services, etc.
