Notable Academic Programs

• Spanish - The Spanish Program at CSU Pueblo follows a proficiency-oriented philosophy that encourages students not only to read and write the language but to speak it. Our faculty uses a communicative approach that is learner centered so students make the maximum use of class time for language practice with their peers and teachers. The program offers a major and a minor. For each, students take a combination of skills building courses, conversation and composition courses centered on the culture of Spanish speaking areas around the world, and literature courses that emphasize language proficiency and critical thinking.

Each emphasis area meets certification requirements of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) or The Wildlife Society (TWS).
• Business - All undergraduate business majors (accounting, business management, and economics) take the Business Core. The Core prepares students who are declaring a business major for general business knowledge and skills. The Core classes also provide students with an understanding of and appreciation for the intellectual discipline needed for successful completion of a business major. These courses provide students with the common body of knowledge needed for imaginative and responsible citizenship and leadership roles in business and society, domestic and worldwide. The Business Core is designed to provide students with the opportunity to integrate their educational experience in business within a specific discipline and across disciplines.
• Political Science - In the Political Science Program, students investigate the causes and effects of various forms of political behavior; they analyze the policymaking processes of governments, the political and social consequences of laws, sources of international conflict and diplomacy, and values that shape political institutions and procedures. We offer courses in American Government, International Relations, Public Policy, Comparative Politics, and Political Theory. Students work with faculty who research and publish in these areas and who have direct experience in the process of government. The Program offers the opportunity to pursue either a Major or Minor in Political Science, and many courses count toward the university's General Education requirements. The course requirements for the degrees are listed below, and at the bottom of this page you can find more information about courses, internships, and the Political Science Program.
