Commonly known to locals as simply “Mines,” Colorado School of Mines spent over a century building a reputation as one of the finest science and engineering schools in the country, and has even been called the best in the world for mineral and mining engineering. Among its top facilities, the institution is nationally ranked for its petroleum engineering program and oversees a robust Renewable Materials Research Science and Engineering Center. The campus’s location in Golden offers the best of both worlds, perched right where the Denver metropolitan area starts to give way to the magnificent peaks of the Front Range. Downtown Golden is practically next door to the main campus, putting you within a short walk of the bars, restaurants, and coffeehouses clustered around Washington Avenue. The area’s legendary brewery culture, nightlife, entertainment, sports, and dining are very close at hand, and a weekend of skiing, hiking, or mountain biking is always just a short drive away.
