Welcome to Colorado School of Mines, the first public institution of higher learning to open its doors in Colorado. Founded in 1874 to answer the Colorado mining industry's need for new mining methods, this institution has evolved and expanded through the years to address the contemporary needs of a complex world community.
Mines is now a dynamic center of research and a respected leader in engineering education and applied science related to Earth, Energy, Materials and Environment. The knowledge and skills that Mines contributes to society have never been more needed than they are today.
