The University of New Mexico (also referred to as UNM) is a accessible analysis university amid in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is New Mexico's flagship analysis institution, the better post-secondary academy in the accompaniment in absolute acceptance beyond all campuses as of 2012, and one of the state's better employers.

Founded in 1889, UNM offers bachelor's, master's, doctoral, and able amount programs in a advanced array of fields. Its Albuquerque campus currently encompasses over 600 acreage (2.4 km²), and there are annex campuses in Gallup, Los Alamos, Rio Rancho, Taos, and Los Lunas.[6]Coordinates: 35.08389°N 106.61861°W UNM is categorized as an RU/VH Analysis University (very top analysis activity) in the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, with three Nobel laureates affiliated or associated.

History
Founding
Hodgin Hall, the aboriginal architectonics on campus. The bluff has changed, and the architectonics is now acclimated by the Alumni Association.

The University of New Mexico was founded on February 28, 1889, with the access of House Bill No. 186 by the Legislative Assembly of the Area of New Mexico; stipulating that "Said academy is hereby amid at or abreast the boondocks of Albuquerque, in the canton of Bernalillo aural two afar arctic of railroad access in said town, aloft a amplitude of acceptable top and dry land, of not beneath than twenty acreage acceptable for the purposes of such institution," and that it would be the accompaniment university if New Mexico became a state. Bernard Shandon Rodey, a adjudicator of the area of New Mexico, pushed for Albuquerque as the area of the University and was one of the authors of the statute that created UNM, earning him the appellation of "Father of the University." Two years later, Elias S. Stover became the aboriginal admiral of the University and the afterward year the University's aboriginal building, Hodgin Hall, opened.

Early growth
The third admiral of UNM, William G. Tight, who served from 1901–09, alien abounding programs for acceptance and faculty, including the aboriginal fraternity and sorority. Tight alien the Pueblo Revival architectonics for which the campus has become known. During Tight's term, the aboriginal Pueblo Revival appearance architectonics on campus, the Estufa, was constructed, and the Victorian-style Hodgin Hall was bashed over to actualize a cairn to Pueblo Indian culture. However, Tight was vilified for his primitivism and was removed from appointment for political reasons, admitting history would absolve him as the Pueblo Revival appearance became the ascendant architectural appearance on campus.

Under David Ross Boyd, the university's fifth president, the campus was connected from 20 to 300 acreage (1.2 km2) and a 200,000-acre (810 km2) federal acreage admission was fabricated to the university. In 1922, the University was accepted by the Arctic Axial Association of Colleges and Schools. During this time, added accessories were complete for the university, but it was beneath the administration of James F. Zimmerman, the university's seventh president, that the university underwent its aboriginal above expansion. Beneath Zimmerman, abounding new barrio were constructed, apprentice acceptance increased, new departments were added, and greater abutment was generated for accurate research. Among the new barrio complete were Zimmerman Library, Scholes Hall, the aboriginal apprentice abutment architectonics (now the anthropology complex), the university's aboriginal amphitheater and its aboriginal stadium. John Gaw Meem, a acclaimed Santa Fe architect, was apprenticed to architecture abounding of the barrio complete during this period, and is accustomed with imbuing the campus with its characteristic Pueblo Revival style.

World War II and beyond
During World War II, University of New Mexico was one of 131 colleges and universities nationally that took allotment in the V-12 Navy Academy Training Program which offered acceptance a aisle to a Navy commission.

Thomas L. Popejoy, the ninth and the aboriginal built-in New Mexican university president, was appointed in 1948 and oversaw the university through the next twenty years, a aeon of above advance for the university. During this time, acceptance jumped from about 5,000 to added than 14,000, new programs such as medicine, nursing, dental, and law were founded, and new accessories such as Mesa Vista Hall, Mitchell Hall, Johnson Gymnasium, new dormitories, the accepted apprentice abutment building, the Academy of Education complex, the business center, the engineering complex, the Fine Arts Center, the Apprentice Health Center, University Stadium, University Arena (now clearly accepted by its appellation of The Pit), and the aboriginal accessories on Arctic Campus were constructed. This aeon aswell saw the foundation of UNM's annex accessories in Los Alamos and Gallup and the accretion of the D.H. Lawrence Ranch arctic of Taos.

During the aboriginal 1970s, a alternation of protests were captivated at the university and some of them angry violent. On May 5, 1970, a beef over the Vietnam War and the Kent Accompaniment annihilation active the Apprentice Abutment Building. The Civic Guard was ordered to ambit the architectonics and arrest those inside; eleven acceptance and journalists were bayonetted if those alfresco did not apprehend the adjustment to banish accustomed inside.[8] On May 10, 1972, a peaceful demonstration beef abreast Kirtland Air Force Base led to the arrest of thirty-five humans and was pushed aback to UNM, arch to eight added arrests. The afterward day, breach gas was acclimated adjoin hundreds of demonstrators on campus and the bearings connected to deteriorate, arch to the university to acknowledge a accompaniment of emergency.

New programs and schools were created in the 1970s and the university acquired ascendancy over the hospital on Arctic Campus. New accessories for the medical and law schools were complete on Arctic Campus and new Capital Campus barrio were complete on the website of the now burst Zimmerman Field and Stadium, including Ortega Hall, Woodward Hall, the Humanities building, and the Art building. The campus aswell underwent a new agriculture plan, which included the architecture of the avoid pond west of Zimmerman Library and the about-face of abounding streets to banal malls in adjustment to accomplish a added pedestrian-friendly campus.

At the end of the decade, the university was active in a recruiting aspersion dubbed "Lobogate" by the press. An FBI eavesdrop on the buzz of a arresting Lobo booster recorded a chat in which basketball arch drillmaster Norm Ellenberger abiding with abettor drillmaster Manny Goldstein to alteration artificial credits from a California inferior academy to the appointment of the UNM registrar. Subsequent analysis angry up a bogus academy allowance from Mercer Canton Community Academy in New Jersey, forth with bare transcripts and annal of antecedent forgery. Further analysis baldheaded declared incentives like cars and apartments doled out to prime players and apparent a all-inclusive arrangement of sports gambling. The aspersion affected Ellenberger to abandon and authentic the appellation of William E. Davis, UNM's eleventh president.

Recent history
The university has connected to grow, with accretion acceptance and new facilities. In the 1980s, affecting amplification occurred at the medical center, business school, and engineering school. The Centennial Library was aswell constructed. During the 1990s, an Honors Academy was founded, and the university completed architecture of a new bookstore and Dane Smith Hall. The Analysis Park at South Campus was aswell expanded.

By this point, the university had one of the better apprentice and adroitness populations of Hispanics and Built-in Americans in the country. A abstraction appear in 1995 showed that the amount of full-time Hispanic adroitness at UNM was four times greater than the civic boilerplate and the amount of Built-in American agents 5 times greater. The schools of law and business had some of the better Hispanic apprentice populations of any university in the country.

In the aboriginal decade of the 2000s, above amplification began on medical accessories on Arctic Campus. The accepted company center, a new engineering center, and George Pearl Hall were constructed. Renovations and expansions were undertaken on several barrio on Capital Campus, forth with the conception of a annex campus in Rio Rancho. This beachcomber of architecture is continuing at present with added projects ongoing.

Campus
The capital campus is amid on 600 acreage (2.4 km2) in Albuquerque on the heights a mile east of Downtown Albuquerque, and is breach in three locations – central, north, and south. The axial campus is anchored amid Axial Access on the south, Girard Boulevard on the east, Lomas Boulevard on the north, and University Boulevard on the west, and is home to the capital bookish university. The Arctic Campus, which includes the medical and law schools as able-bodied as the University of New Mexico Hospital, is amid on the arctic ancillary of Lomas beyond from the axial campus. The South campus is amid a mile south of the axial campus, centered about the circle of University Boulevard and Avenida César Chavez, and includes a lot of of UNM's able-bodied facilities. The axial campus is acclaimed for its different Pueblo Revival architectural style, with abounding of the barrio advised by above university artist John Gaw Meem, who is accustomed with imbuing the campus with its characteristic Southwestern feel. The axial campus is aswell home to the University of New Mexico Arboretum, which contains some 320 breed of coarse plants.

Eight university barrio are listed alone on the Civic Register of Historic Places, including Hodgin Hall, the University's aboriginal building, and two adjoining structures, the Art Annex and Sara Reynolds Hall. The Estufa, one of the aboriginal Pueblo Revival appearance structures in the country and the aboriginal on campus, is aswell on the list. Added structures on the anthology are Carlisle Gymnasium, Jonson Gallery, Scholes Hall, and the University House.

The axial campus is home to four museums: the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology in the anthropology building, the Geology and Meteorite Museums in Northrop Hall, the Southwest Biology Museum in the CERIA building, and the University Art Museum in the Centermost for the Arts.

In an accomplishment to advance sustainability and abate the ecology appulse of the campus, UNM has been abbreviation the campus activity acceptance through ecology and retrofitting cooling, heating, water, and lighting technologies.[9] Due to these efforts, the University of New Mexico's brand on the Academy Sustainability Report Card 2009 bigger from a "C" to a "B" according to the Sustainable Endowments Institute.Since 2008, afterward an controlling adjustment that all new accompaniment barrio over 15,000 sq ft (1,400 m2) charge to accommodated LEED argent at minimum, all new architecture on campus has been registered for LEED status. So far, an amplification of Castetter Hall and the Technology and Education Centermost are the alone LEED-certified barrio on campus, with a Gold and Platinum appraisement respectively. Several added barrio are currently registered for LEED status.

West Coast University (WCU) is a private, for-profit university focused on healthcare degrees, campus locations cover Los Angeles, Anaheim and Ontario, California, Dallas, Texas, and Miami, Florida. It is not accompanying to a academy of the aforementioned name  operating out of Panama. David Pyle founded American Career College in 1979 beneath the name of American College of Optics. Originally the academy focused alone on optical dispensing. In May 1997, Mr. Pyle purchased West Coast University, which was founded in 1909, out of defalcation and developed a affairs for the training of registered nurses.

History
West Coast University was founded in Los Angeles in 1909 as a baby ophthalmology school. Over the next 50 years, its affairs offerings assorted from aeriform engineering, activated sciences and mathematics to adaptable agent engine repairs. As it developed, West Coast University became one of the antecedents in alms bachelor's amount programs advised to accommodated the needs of alive adults to aid their careers. These programs were offered in non-traditional settings. For example, in 1953, the University began alms evening-only programs based on a agenda of six two-month bookish terms. The success of this access led the University to aggrandize and alter its programs to cover offerings in the areas of business and management, computer science, automated technology, and pre-health science. Associate degrees in Science as able-bodied as master's amount programs were alien in the 1960s and 1970s. In 1981, the University reorganized into three audible colleges: the College of Business and Management, the College of Engineering, and the College of Letters and Sciences. The University was led by the backward Dr. Victor Elconin, whose administration was active in developing the University’s solid acceptability in the business and bookish community.

In May 1997, WCU was reorganized beneath the administration of its accepted Chairman, David Pyle . The new administration aggregation was committed to refocusing the institution’s alms of programs to those that were accomplished in appeal and would be a lot of benign to alive adults. Therefore, educating bloom affliction professionals became the University’s atypical focus in 2004. Just four years later, West Coast University became the aboriginal abreast captivated proprietary university in California accustomed to action a Bachelor of Science amount in Nursing. The afterward year, in 2009, the University accomplished added programmatic accreditation for the Bachelor of Science in Nursing affairs at their California campuses from the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Apprenticeship (CCNE). That aforementioned year, WCU was awarded antecedent accreditation by the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) to action a Bachelor of Science Amount in Dental Hygiene in Orange County. WCU’s Dental Hygiene affairs is one of alone 4 CODA-accredited bachelor's amount in Dental Hygiene programs offered in California. West Coast University chose Henry Schein to architecture a new dental hygiene teaching ability in its Anaheim, California campus which opened its doors on April 13, 2009.

West Coast University’s Los Angeles campus accustomed approval in 2010 to accolade Master of Science degrees in Nursing and Bloom Affliction Management. That aforementioned year, the avant-garde Simulation Center for Nursing opened at the Orange County campus. The Simulation Center is congenital into the nursing class and appearance high-fidelity mannequins that actor animal responses and accepted bloom affliction technology in astute accommodating affliction settings. A year later, Simulation Centers were opened in the Los Angeles and Ontario campuses.

West Coast University has been a actor in the Yellow Ribbon GI Apprenticeship Enhancement Affairs (Yellow Ribbon Affairs or YRP) back 2010.

In 2011, the University accomplished institutional accreditation through the WASC Senior College and University Commission.

West Coast University opened a campus in Dallas, Texas in 2012. WCU-Dallas is amid in the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex, appearance a Simulation Center, and is the University’s aboriginal Texas campus. That aforementioned year the Master of Science in Nursing amount accustomed added accreditation by CCNE, Commission on Collegiete Nursing Education.

One notable alum of WCU is Greg Jarvis, one of the astronauts on the Amplitude Shuttle Challenger. He was appointed to accept his diploma, for a administration science degree, on the shuttle, and would accept been the aboriginal being to accept a amount in space. To account his memory, West Coast University posthumously awarded Jarvis with a acclaimed alum accolade on May 15, 2011. The University aswell offers a scholarship in Jarvis’ name.

In 2013, West Coast University launched Global Public Bloom programs. Today acceptance accept catholic to Panama, Costa Rica, Belize, Moldova, and Argentina. West Coast University's Los Angeles campus accustomed approval by WASC for a Master of Science in Occupational Therapy, Doctor of Physical Therapy, and Doctor of Pharmacy programs. In 2014, the MSOT, DPT and PharmD programs were launched.

In 2014, West Coast University opened its newest campus in Miami, Florida. WCU Miami appearance a Simulation Center and is the university's aboriginal Florida campus. The campus offers BSN and LPN to BSN degrees. These programs are accustomed by the Florida Board of Nursing.
WCU's ancestor aggregation purchased Contemporary Forums, a baton in continuing apprenticeship for nurses. West Coast University and American Career College graduates are all acceptable for advancing CE discounts through Contemporary Forums.

In 2015, WCU launched the 100% online, 12-month RN to BSN, 24 ages RN to MSN and 24 ages MSN programs.

The California Convention of Technology (abbreviated Caltech) is a clandestine doctorate-granting university amid in Pasadena, California, United States. Although founded as a basic and abstruse academy by Amos G. Throop in 1891, the academy admiring affecting scientists such as George Ellery Hale, Arthur Amos Noyes, and Robert Andrews Millikan in the aboriginal 20th century. The abstruse and basic schools were disbanded and spun off in 1910, and the academy affected its present name in 1921. In 1934, Caltech was adopted to the Association of American Universities, and the antecedents of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which Caltech continues to administrate and operate, were accustomed amid 1936 and 1943 beneath Theodore von Kármán. The university is one a allotment of a baby accumulation of Institutes of Technology in the United States which tends to be primarily adherent to the apprenticeship of abstruse arts and activated sciences.

Caltech has six bookish capacity with able accent on science and engineering, managing $332 actor in 2011 in sponsored research.Its 124-acre (50 ha) primary campus is amid about 11 mi (18 km) northeast of city Los Angeles. First-year acceptance are appropriate to reside on campus, and 95% of undergraduates abide in the on-campus House System at Caltech. Although Caltech has a able attitude of applied jokes and pranks, apprentice activity is absolute by an account cipher which allows adroitness to accredit take-home examinations. The Caltech Beavers attempt in 13 intercollegiate sports in the NCAA Analysis III's Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

Caltech is frequently cited as one of the world's best universities. Despite its baby size, 33 Caltech alumni and adroitness accept won a absolute of 34 Nobel Prizes (Linus Pauling getting the alone alone in history to win two distinct prizes), 5 Fields Medalists, 6 Turing Award winners accept been affiliated with the university, and 71 accept won the United States Civic Medal of Science or Technology. There are 112 adroitness assembly who accept been adopted to the United States Civic Academies. In addition, abundant adroitness assembly are associated with the Howard Hughes Medical Convention as able-bodied as NASA.According to a 2015 Pomona study, Caltech ranked bulk one in the USA for the allotment of its graduates who go on to acquire a PhD.

History
Caltech started as a abstruse academy founded in Pasadena in 1891 by bounded agent and baby-kisser Amos G. Throop. The academy was accepted successively as Throop University, Throop Polytechnic Convention (and Manual Training School), and Throop Academy of Technology, afore accepting its accepted name in 1920. The abstruse academy was disbanded and the basic diplomacy was breach off to anatomy an absolute Polytechnic Academy in 1907.

At a time if accurate analysis in the United States was still in its infancy, George Ellery Hale, a solar astronomer from the University of Chicago, founded the Mount Wilson Observatory in 1904. He abutting Throop's lath of advisers in 1907, and anon began developing it and the accomplished of Pasadena into a above accurate and cultural destination. He engineered the arrangement of James A. B. Scherer, a arcane bookish benighted in science but a able ambassador and armamentarium raiser, to Throop's admiral in 1908. Scherer abiding retired agent and trustee Charles W. Gates to accord $25,000 in berry money to physique Gates Laboratory, the aboriginal science architectonics on campus.

World Wars
In the aforementioned year, a bill was alien in the California Legislature calling for the enactment of a about adjourned "California Convention of Technology", with an antecedent account of a actor dollars, ten times the account of Throop at the time. The lath of advisers offered to about-face Throop over to the state, but the presidents of Stanford University and the University of California auspiciously lobbied to defeat the bill, which accustomed Throop to beforehand as the alone accurate research-oriented apprenticeship convention in southern California, accessible or private, until the access of the World War II apprenticed the broader development of research-based science education. The affiance of Throop admiring accurate chemist Arthur Amos Noyes from MIT to beforehand the academy and abetment in establishing it as a centermost for science and technology.

With the access of World War I, Hale organized the Civic Analysis Lath to alike and abutment accurate plan on aggressive problems. While he accurate the abstraction of federal appropriations for science, he took barring to a federal bill that would accept adjourned engineering analysis at land-grant colleges, and instead approved to accession a $1 actor civic analysis armamentarium absolutely from clandestine sources. To that end, as Hale wrote in The New York Times:

Throop Academy of Technology, in Pasadena California has afresh afforded a arresting analogy of one way in which the Analysis Lath can defended co-operation and beforehand accurate investigation. This institution, with its able lath and accomplished analysis laboratories, could be of abundant account in any ample arrangement of cooperation. Admiral Scherer, audition of the accumulation of the council, anon offered to yield allotment in its work, and with this object, he anchored aural three canicule an added analysis award of one hundred thousand dollars.

Through the Civic Analysis Council, Hale accompanying lobbied for science to play a beyond role in civic affairs, and for Throop to play a civic role in science. The new funds were appointed for physics research, and ultimately led to the enactment of the Norman Bridge Laboratory, which admiring beginning physicist Robert Andrews Millikan from the University of Chicago in 1917. During the advance of the war, Hale, Noyes and Millikan formed calm in Washington on the NRC. Subsequently, they connected their affiliation in developing Caltech.

Under the administering of Hale, Noyes and Millikan (aided by the booming abridgement of Southern California), Caltech grew to civic bulge in the 1920s and concentrated on the development of Roosevelt's "Hundredth Man". On November 29, 1921, the advisers declared it to be the accurate action of the Convention to accompany accurate analysis of the greatest accent and at the aforementioned time "to abide to conduct absolute courses in engineering and authentic science, basing the plan of these courses on awfully able apprenticeship in the axiological sciences of mathematics, physics, and chemistry; adorning and adorning the class by a advanced bulk of apprenticeship in such capacity as English, history, and economics; and activating all the plan of the Convention by the beverage in acceptable admeasurement of the spirit of research."In 1923, Millikan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1925, the academy accustomed a administering of cartography and assassin William Bennett Munro, again administrator of the analysis of History, Government, and Economics at Harvard University, to actualize a analysis of abstract and amusing sciences at Caltech. In 1928, a analysis of analysis was accustomed beneath the administering of Thomas Hunt Morgan, the a lot of acclaimed biologist in the United States at the time, and discoverer of the role of genes and the chromosome in heredity. In 1930, Kerckhoff Marine Laboratory was accustomed in Corona del Mar beneath the affliction of Professor George MacGinitie. In 1926, a alum academy of aerodynamics was created, which eventually admiring Theodore von Kármán. Kármán after helped actualize the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and played an basic allotment in establishing Caltech as one of the world's centers for rocket science. In 1928, architectonics of the Palomar Observatory began.

Campus
Caltech's 124-acre (50 ha) primary campus is amid in Pasadena, California, about 11 afar (18 km) northeast of city Los Angeles. It is aural walking ambit of Old Town Pasadena and the Pasadena Playhouse District and accordingly the two locations are common getaways for Caltech students.
In 1917 Hale assassin artist Bertram Goodhue to aftermath a adept plan for the 22 acreage (8.9 ha) campus. Goodhue conceived the all-embracing blueprint of the campus and advised the physics building, Dabney Hall, and several added structures, in which he approved to be constant with the bounded climate, the appearance of the school, and Hale's educational philosophy. Goodhue's designs for Caltech were aswell afflicted by the acceptable Spanish mission architectonics of Southern California.

In 1971 a magnitude-6.6 convulsion in San Fernando acquired some accident to the Caltech campus. Engineers who evaluated the accident begin that two celebrated barrio dating from the aboriginal canicule of the Institute—Throop Hall and the Goodhue-designed Culbertson Auditorium—had cracked. These were some of the aboriginal able accurate buildings, and their diplomacy did not accommodate abundant data (such as how abundant reinforcing bar had been anchored in the concrete) to be abiding they were safe, so the engineers recommended demolition. However, abolition these celebrated structures appropriate appreciably added accomplishment than would accept been all-important had they been in absolute crisis of collapse. A ample accident brawl was acclimated to annihilate Throop Hall, and smashing the accurate appear massive amounts of rebar, far in balance of assurance requirements. The rebar had to be cut up afore the pieces could be hauled away, and the action took abundant best than expected.

Organization and administration
Caltech is congenital as a non-profit association and is absolute by a abreast appointed 46-member lath of advisers who serve five-year agreement of appointment and retire at the age of 72. The accepted lath is chaired by David L. Lee, co-founder of Global Crossing Ltd. The Advisers accept a Admiral to serve as the arch controlling administrator of the Convention and administrate the diplomacy on the Convention on account of the board, a Provost who serves as the arch bookish administrator of the Convention beneath the President, and ten added carnality presidential and added chief positions. Former Georgia Tech provost Jean-Lou Chameau became the eighth admiral of Caltech on September 1, 2006, replacing David Baltimore who had served back 1997.Dr. Chameau's advantage for 2008–2009 totaled $799,472.[40] Chameau served until June 30, 2013. Thomas F. Rosenbaum was appear to be the ninth admiral of Caltech on October 24, 2013, and his appellation began on July 1, 2014. Caltech's award is absolute by a abiding Trustee board and administered by an Investment Office.


The Kerckhoff Laboratory of the Biological Sciences
The Convention is organized into six primary bookish divisions: Analysis and Biological Engineering, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Engineering and Activated Science, Geological and Planetary Sciences, Abstract and Amusing Sciences, and Physics, Mathematics, and Astronomy. The voting adroitness of Caltech cover all professors, instructors, analysis assembly and fellows, and the University Librarian. Adroitness are amenable for establishing acceptance requirements, bookish standards, and curricula. The Adroitness Lath is the faculty's adumbrative physique and consists of 18 adopted adroitness assembly as able-bodied as added chief administering officials. Full-time advisers are accepted to admonish classes, conduct research, admonish students, and accomplish authoritative plan such as confined on committees.

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is a federally adjourned analysis and development centermost (FFRDC) endemic by NASA and operated as a analysis of Caltech through a arrangement amid NASA and Caltech. In 2008, JPL spent over $1.6 billion on analysis and development and active over 5,000 project-related and abutment employees. The JPL Director aswell serves as a Caltech Carnality Admiral and is amenable to the Admiral of the Convention for the administration of the Laboratory.

The University of Colorado Boulder (UCB, frequently referred to as CU, Boulder, CU-Boulder, or Colorado) is a accessible assay university amid in Boulder, Colorado, United States. It is the flagship university of the University of Colorado arrangement and was founded 5 months afore Colorado was accepted to the abutment in 1876.

In 2010, the university consisted of nine colleges and schools and offered over 150 bookish programs and enrolled 29,952 students. Twelve Nobel Laureates, nine MacArthur Fellows, and 18 astronauts accept been affiliated with CU-Boulder as students, researchers, or adroitness associates in its history. The university accustomed about $454 actor in sponsored assay in 2010 to armamentarium programs like the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Amplitude Physics, and JILA.

The Colorado Buffaloes attempt in 17 varsity sports and are associates of the NCAA Analysis I Pac-12 Conference. The Buffaloes accept won 28 civic championships: 20 in skiing, seven absolute in men's and women's cantankerous country, and one in football. About 1,500 acceptance participate in 34 intercollegiate club sports annually as well.

History
On March 14, 1876, the Colorado territorial assembly anesthetized an alteration to the accompaniment architectonics that provided money for the enactment of the University of Colorado in Boulder, the Colorado Academy of Mines in Golden, and the Colorado Agricultural Academy in Fort Collins.

Two cities competed for the website of the University of Colorado: Boulder and Cañon City. The alleviation amount for the accident city-limits was to be home of the new Colorado Accompaniment Prison. Cañon City-limits was at a disadvantage as it was already the home of the Colorado Territorial Prison. (There are now six prisons in the Cañon City-limits area.)
The cornerstone of the architectonics that became Old Capital was laid on September 20, 1875. The doors of the university opened on September 5, 1877. At the time, there were few top schools in the accompaniment that could abundantly adapt acceptance for university work, so in accession to the University, a basic academy was formed on campus. In the abatement of 1877, the apprentice physique consisted of 15 acceptance in the academy able and 50 acceptance in the basic school. There were 38 men and 27 women, and their ages ranged from 12–23 years.
During World War II, Colorado was one of 131 colleges and universities nationally that took allotment in the V-12 Fleet Academy Training Program which offered acceptance a aisle to a fleet commission.

Campus
The capital CU-Boulder campus is amid south of the Pearl Street Mall. It consists of bookish and residential barrio as able-bodied as assay facilities. The East Campus is about a analysis mile from the capital campus and is composed mainly of able-bodied fields and assay buildings.

Architecture
CU-Boulder's characteristic architectonics style, accepted as Tuscan Vernacular Revival, was advised by artist Charles Klauder. The oldest buildings, such as Old Capital (1876) and Macky Amphitheater (1923), were in the Collegiate Gothic appearance of abounding East Coast schools, and Klauder's antecedent diplomacy for the university's new barrio (approved in 1919) were in the aforementioned style. A ages or so afterwards approval, however, Klauder adapted his architectonics by abstraction in a new blanket of rough, textured sandstone walls with sloping, multi-leveled red-tiled roofs and Indiana limestone trim. This formed the base of a unified appearance which was acclimated in the architectonics of fifteen added barrio amid 1921 and 1939.

The sandstone acclimated in the architectonics of about all the barrio on campus was alleged from a array of foreground ambit abundance quarries. In 2011, Travel+Leisure alleged the Boulder campus as one of the a lot of admirable academy campuses in the United States.

Residence halls

History
When the Regents of the University of California originally accustomed the San Diego campus in 1956, it was planned to be a alum and analysis institution, accouterment apprenticeship in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering. Bounded citizens accurate the idea, voting the aforementioned year to alteration to the university 59 acreage (24 ha) of acropolis acreage on the bank abreast the preexisting Scripps Academy of Oceanography. The Regents requested an added allowance of 550 acreage (220 ha) of abortive acropolis acreage northeast of Scripps, as able-bodied as 500 acreage (200 ha) on the above website of Camp Matthews from the federal government, but Roger Revelle, again administrator of Scripps Academy and capital apostle for establishing the new campus, jeopardized the website another by advertisement the La Jolla community's absolute absolute acreage business practices, which were afraid to boyhood ancestral and religious groups. This affronted bounded conservatives, as able-bodied as Regent Edwin W. Pauley. UC President Clark Kerr annoyed San Diego city-limits donors by alteration the proposed name from University of California, La Jolla, to University of California, San Diego.The city-limits voted in acceding to its allotment in 1958, and the UC accustomed architecture of the new campus in 1960. Because of the affray with Pauley, Revelle was not fabricated chancellor. Herbert York, aboriginal administrator of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, was appointed instead. York planned the capital campus according to the "Oxbridge" model, relying on abounding of Revelle's ideas.

UC San Diego was the aboriginal accustomed campus of the University of California to be advised "from the top down" in agreement of analysis emphasis. Bounded leaders disagreed on whether the new academy should be a abstruse analysis convention or a added broadly based academy that included undergraduates as well. John Jay Hopkins of Accustomed Dynamics Corporation apprenticed one actor dollars for the above while the City-limits Council offered chargeless acreage for the latter. The aboriginal approval for the San Diego campus accustomed by the UC Regents in 1956 accustomed a "graduate affairs in science and technology" that included undergraduate programs, a accommodation that won both the abutment of Accustomed Dynamics and the city-limits voters' approval. Nobel laureate Harold Urey, a physicist from the University of Chicago, and Hans Suess, who had appear the aboriginal cardboard on the greenhouse aftereffect with Revelle in the antecedent year, were aboriginal recruits to the adroitness in 1958. Maria Goeppert-Mayer, afterwards the added changeable Nobel laureate in physics, was appointed assistant of physics in 1960.The alum analysis of the academy opened in 1960 with 20 adroitness in residence, with apprenticeship offered in the fields of physics, biology, chemistry, and apple science. Afore the capital campus completed construction, classes were captivated in the Scripps Academy of Oceanography.

Engineering, decidedly computer science, became an important allotment of the university's academics as it matured. University advisers helped advance UCSD Pascal, an aboriginal machine-independent programming accent that afterwards heavily afflicted Java, the National Science Foundation Network, a forerunner to the Internet, and the Network News Alteration Protocol during the backward 1970s to 1980s. In economics, the methods for allegory bread-and-butter time alternation with time-varying animation (ARCH), and with accepted trends (cointegration) were developed. UC San Diego maintained its analysis acute appearance afterwards its founding, cutting up 20 Nobel Laureates affiliated aural 50 years of history; a amount of four per decade.

Under Richard C. Atkinson's administering as adjudicator from 1980 to 1995, the university adequate its ties with the city-limits of San Diego by auspicious technology alteration with developing companies, transforming San Diego into a apple baton in technology-based industries. He oversaw a accelerated amplification of the Academy of Engineering, afterwards renamed afterwards Qualcomm architect Irwin M. Jacobs, with the architecture of the San Diego Supercomputer Center and enactment of the computer science, electrical engineering, and bioengineering departments.Private donations added from $15 actor to about $50 actor annually, adroitness broadcast by about 50%, and acceptance angled to about 18,000 acceptance during his administration. By the end of his chancellorship, the superior of UC San Diego alum programs was ranked 10th in the nation by the National Analysis Council.

The university connected to abide added amplification during the aboriginal decade of the new millennium with the enactment and architecture of two new able schools — the Skaggs Academy of Pharmacy and Rady Academy of Management—and the California Convention for Telecommunications and Information Technology, a analysis convention run accordingly with UC Irvine. UC San Diego aswell accomplished two banking milestones during this time, acceptable the aboriginal university in the western arena to accession over $1 billion in its eight-year fundraising attack in 2007 and aswell accepting an added $1 billion through analysis affairs and grants in a individual budgetary year for the aboriginal time in 2010.
