The CSU System and its campuses are ingrained in communities across the state.

Each day, the CSU System works with citizens, policymakers, businesses, and organizations to understand issues,  research opportunities, refine concepts, and improve economic vibrancy and quality of life for the people of Colorado.

At the heart of our work is a mission to  provide access to educational excellence and opportunities that arise from it.

Together, we make Colorado our home. Together we serve our state and the world.
