The Europe-Colorado Program was created in the year 2020 to provide outstanding students from Europe with opportunities for research and graduate study in engineering and applied science at the University of Colorado Boulder. It is modeled after the highly successful Balsells Program, which operated during 2010 – 2020 and focused on students from the Catalunya region of Spain. The Europe-Colorado Program has two components, a Mobility Program and Graduate Study. These two components work in tandem, as the mobility students who come to Colorado for short-term research projects are able to cultivate their interest in returning for graduate study leading to Master’s and PhD degrees.
