The Geography program offers a distinctive curriculum that focuses on the study of human-environmental interaction and is premised upon a model of scientific education that integrates the natural/physical and social sciences. The program takes a place-based approach to this topic, seeking to understand in a holistic manner how cultural, political, economic, natural, and physical processes combine and interact to shape and re-shape landscapes, cities, regions, and nations through time.

The economics major provides flexibility and opportunity and can take you in many directions, both inside and outside of the field of economics. In fact, most economics majors do not work as economists, but in business careers of all varieties. The analytical and quantitative skills that one acquires as an economics major are much in demand in the job market and are also highly attractive to law schools and MBA programs. Whatever your career plans, economics training can give you the edge you need to further your long-term goals.

Trained economists are employed by private businesses, banks, law firms, consulting firms, international corporations and agencies, public utilities, federal and local governments, and colleges and universities. Economists who work in the private sector spend much of their time using the tools of economics to analyze issues that are important to their employers. For instance, these economists might be called upon to forecast the demand for the company's product, to perform cost-benefit or optimal pricing analyses for potential projects, or to analyze the effects of government regulations on the company.

Chemistry is the study of matter and its transformations, from the smallest scale - atoms and subatomic particles - to the macromolecules that provide structure and function to living organisms. Chemistry is often called the “central science” because it touches on other STEM disciplines including physics, biology, medicine, environmental science, geology, mathematics, materials science, technology, and many others. A degree in Chemistry or Biochemistry can prepare you for a wide range of meaningful careers discovering and applying scientific knowledge. Modern chemistry combines computer modeling and experimental observation using procedures that are much safer and more environment-friendly than in past generations. Learning chemistry also teaches you important critical thinking skills that can be valuable in any career.

The Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology are designed to introduce you to the broad spectrum of interests in the field of psychology, including experimental psychology, biological psychology, animal behavior, developmental psychology, social psychology, cognitive psychology, abnormal psychology, health psychology, personality, and industrial/organisational psychology. Also included is an early exposure to research methods and inferential statistics in psychology.

Biology is the study of living organisms at different levels of organisation, from molecular biology to biosphere ecology. These degree requirements are subject to periodic revision by the academic department, and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences reserves the right to make exceptions and substitutions as judged necessary in individual cases.

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) and the Colorado School of Public Health (CSPH) together created the undergraduate Public Health program. Public health professionals work to protect the environment, identify sources of illness in population groups, control disease outbreaks, evaluate the economic ramifications of changing demographics, develop interventions to promote healthy behavior and produce health policy legislation. Public health draws from a broad array of disciplines, including a range of social, behavioral, and natural sciences, each provides unique insights for the diverse set of activities involved in public health practice.

Students in the BS program develop a specialty in the natural sciences and public health. Graduates with a BS in Public Health will be prepared for pursuit of graduate degrees in a broad range of fields, including the natural, social, and behavioral sciences, public health, law, medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, nursing, business administration, and health services research. The program is especially appropriate for students intending to pursue careers in public health, as well as primary care specialties in medicine, nursing, or health policy and administration.

The Bachelor of Science degree program in psychology focuses mostly on the biological and biochemical basis of behavior and mental function. This degree program prepares you for employment and graduate study in many areas of psychology and related fields, including neuroscience and biomedical research.

The construction engineering and management bachelor of science offers the rigors of engineering problem-solving and design with business and management courses, coupled with construction engineering and management courses. Students receive an innovative interdisciplinary education that combines coursework in engineering, construction, business and architecture.

Civil engineering offers an interesting and challenging career in the design, construction, and maintenance of buildings and urban infrastructure; in transportation systems, including highways, airports, rapid transit lines, railroads, and harbor facilities; in the development of water resources, including reservoirs for storage, canals for irrigation, dams for power generation, stormwater management for drainage, groundwater recharge for contamination prevention, wastewater treatment for environmental protection, and water purification for drinking purposes; in the construction industry; including foundations, bridges, concrete and steel structures, in problems concerned with environmental preservation; and in the sustainable development of cities. In preparing for work in such a broad field, the civil engineering student studies mathematics, basic science, communication, social science and humanities, engineering science and civil engineering design.

Construction management professionals combine knowledge of innovative technologies, construction practices and business management to lead a variety of construction projects, from residential, commercial and industrial buildings to infrastructure projects such as roads, bridges and large facilities. Construction managers orchestrate construction projects over their full life-cycle, managing schedules, budgets, quality and safety.

The bachelor of science in construction management at CU Denver includes a solid foundation of construction engineering and management courses, engineering courses and courses from the Business School and College of Architecture and Planning. All students will complete a construction capstone design course
