== Overview ==
[http://cires.colorado.edu/jimenez/boulder_overview.jpg Boulder] is arguably one of the world's centers in the fields of Atmospheric Chemistry & Air Quality Research, thanks to the high concentration and quality of faculty and researchers at the  University of Colorado [http://www.colorado.edu/ (CU)], the  National Center for Atmospheric Research [http://www.ncar.ucar.edu/ (NCAR)], and the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory [http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/ ESRL], plus the added critical mass from researchers at nearby Colorado State University ([http://www.colostate.edu/ CSU]) and the University of Denver ([http://www.du.edu/ DU]) .

This page attemps to summarize the opportunities available to beginning graduate students (and postdocs) at the University of Colorado.

== Paths to a PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry and Air Quality at CU Boulder ==

There are three main paths to a Ph.D. at the University of Colorado with research in the areas of atmospheric chemistry & air pollution:
* Through the [http://paos.colorado.edu/index.php Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences]
** [http://paos.colorado.edu/research/chem.php Atmospheric Chemistry program]
* Through the  [http://www.colorado.edu/chemistry/ Department of Chemistry]
* Through the [http://www.colorado.edu/mechanical/ Department of Mechanical Engineering]
** [http://spot.colorado.edu/~henzed/CAQR Collaborative for Air Quality Research (CAQR)]
