Graduate counseling student looking another student as they are talking.

Welcome to the University of Northern Colorado! As a new or returning graduate student, you join a vibrant learning community. It’s full of educators, scholars, passionate students and a dedicated staff of professionals.

We continue a proud tradition of more than 100 years of graduate education. Here you’ll find research facilities, laboratories and extensive library resources. These will help stimulate your sense of inquiry and enhance your ability to master complex topics. They will also help you immerse yourself in your chosen profession.

We urge you to explore the diversity of educational, artistic and recreational opportunities. Attend lectures, become involved in faculty research and present at Graduate Research Evening. You can also find a mentor, take courses from other departments and meet people from around the world. A graduate education involves more than academics. We urge you to attend artistic, musical, theatrical and dance performances. We also encourage you explore the northern front-range. Hike the beautiful Rocky Mountains or visit cities such as Denver, Boulder and Vail.

Once again, welcome the University of Northern Colorado. We wish you every success in your studies and look forward to meeting you!
