"Mines is committed to offering the best campus experience for students and continually makes improvements to campus facilities and student life programming. In addition to providing an outstanding technical education, Mines provides opportunities for every student to develop leadership qualities." Alicia Jessop '05 |
The
Colorado School of Mines campus features beautifully renovated historical
architecture as well as award-winning new buildings. Mines is located
in Golden, Colorado, only 15 miles west of Denver's downtown business
district. Golden, a thriving community of 17,000, offers a small town
atmosphere with convenient access to big city attractions. 
Nestled
in the foothills of the Rocky
Mountains near many of the world's premier ski resorts and Rocky Mountain
National Park, Golden enjoys over 300 days of sunshine a year.
