Students may apply for admission to the Hydrologic Sciences Graduate Program after matriculation into the graduate degree program of aÌýparticipating departmentÌýat the University of Colorado at Â鶹ӰԺ.

The following academic programs participate in the Hydrologic Sciences Program.Ìý

ATOCÌý- Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences

  • Provides an educational and research environment to examine the dynamical, physical, and chemical processes that occur in the atmosphere and the ocean.Ìý
  • A major theme is the establishment of a physical basis for understanding, observing, and modeling climate and global change.Ìý
  • Aims to be the focal point for atmospheric and oceanic science education and research training.

CEAEÌý- Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering

  • Educates students to become leaders in the professional practice of engineering.Ìý
  • Contributes to technological advances that benefit humankind while enhancing the earth's physical and biological resources.Ìý
  • Emphasizes environmental and water resources engineering.

GEOGÌý- Geography

  • Investigates relations between societies and their natural and built environments, emphasizing spatial patterns of human activity and physical/biological processes.
  • Researches new methods for the analysis of geographical data.

GEOLÌý- Geological Sciences

  • Studies a wide range of Earth and environmental problems.
  • Applies math, chemistry, and physics to the study of the earth and its various systems.
  • Earth's natural resources and history.
  • Dynamic processes involving crust and fluid movement within the Earth system.
  • Complex interactions between the lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere

EBIOÌý- Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

  • Studies the ecology and evolutionary biology of organisms, communities, and ecosystems.
  • Researches and educates in biogeochemistry, ecosystem ecology, evolutionary and developmental biology, conservation biology, and animal behavior.

ENVSÌý- Environmental Studies

  • Provides a broad, but rigorous interdisciplinary education in environmental issues and problem-solving, as opposed to a traditional, discipline-based training.Ìý
  • Utilizes existing courses given in various Arts and Sciences departments, as well as a set of focused environmental studies courses.Ìý
  • Draws from curricula in the earth and natural sciences as well as the social sciences.
