On Campus
Environmental Science Education
CIRES faculty at the University of Colorado at Boulder teach courses on their academic departments in a wide range of subjects. Since 1967, our faculty have supervised the research of hundreds of students and graduates who have earned the Ph.D. degree and are now in environmental science and research positions in academia and industry, in the United States and around the world. Our university science partners include colleagues and collaboratoring departments, which offer graduate certificates in many CU-Boulder programs. To promote student scholarship and research excellence, we support graduate education fellowships. |

Upward and Outward - New Video for Students
How does the Tibetan Plateau affect climate patterns from the location
of giant dust storms to the timing of monsoons? Follow the scientific
investigation through the eyes of the researchers -- posing questions,
planning investigations, gathering and interpreting evidence. In "Upward
and Outward: Scientific Inquiry on the Tibetan Pleateau," a new 20-minute
teaching documentary by CIRES Outreach, students learn that real
research isn't just done in a beaker; it's messy, creative and fun. The
film aligns with state and national standards on science as inquiry and
is suitable for high school and college science students and general
adult audiences.
