What's New at CU Denver

CU Denver now offers an undergraduate bioengineering program.

​​With our 40th Anniversary this year, we've been doing a lot of reminiscing about the rich history of the University of Colorado Denver. We've also been celebrating recent developments here—including groundbreaking on a new Academic Building and a brand-new mascot, Milo the CU Denver Lynx.

And there are many more exciting developments in our eight schools and colleges.

Art Gets Urban

Maria Buszek, PhD, associate professor of art history, integrates Denver's art scene into her teaching.
