About Colorado State University

Our State is Colorado, but Rams are built on a global scale. We unite in Fort Collins, where our diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences strengthen our community. True to our land-grant beginnings, we’re focused on practical solutions for today and tomorrow.

As you choose a college, one of the biggest questions most students have is what to study. At Colorado State, we offer over 250 programs, over 50 minors, and several advising tracks. That means you’ll have the ability to reach your goals — no matter what they are.

Founded in 1870 as the Colorado Agricultural College, Colorado State University is now among the nation's leading research universities. Our world-class research in infectious disease, atmospheric science, clean energy technologies, environmental science, and biomedical technology attracted more than $300 million in research funding annually. Our professional programs in veterinary medicine, occupational therapy, journalism, agriculture and construction management are ranked among the nation's best.

Colorado State is the "university of choice"​ for Colorado residents; 30% of all of Colorado's science, math, engineering and technology majors pursue degrees at CSU.
