Faculty are able to offer students truly extraordinary learning experiences due to Colorado College's location, resources and unique Block Plan calendar. Many of the department's courses incorporate experiential learning opportunities, including guest lecturers, executives-in-residence, and field trips.

Field Trips

Field trips range from one-day visits to Denver to visit with the executives of high-tech telecommunications firms and the front offices of professional sports franchises to extensive one- to two-week field trips throughout the Southwest to study environmental economics issues. Some courses are able to take place entirely in a different country!
