Celebrating Five Years of CMCI
The first new college at CU Boulder in 53 years, our mission was to build an education and a community that could match the times we live in. In our first five years at CMCI, we’ve created a strong foundation of academic excellence, community engagement and public scholarship.
Today, we continue to think, innovate and create through
- Scholarship that matters in areas such as climate change, public health, representation and identity, dis- and misinformation, visual ethnography, and data ethics
- Expanded precollegiate opportunities that set students up for success and help create a more vibrant, equitable and inclusive college community
- New academic degree programs that allow students to apply their skills in a broader range of industries, including data science, sports and documentary filmmaking
Today officially marks our five-year anniversary! And we couldn’t have done it without each of you. Because at the heart of CMCI is a sense of community––a vibrant group of scholars, educators and media makers learning and working together.
As we reflect on all we’ve accomplished, here’s a snapshot of what’s next:
- Launching an online master’s in corporate communication
- Establishing a new media innovation laboratory
- Exploring virtual frontiers through extended reality
Here’s to our first and to the next 95 to come.
