The University of Colorado Anschutz is a leading academic medical campus located in the heart of Colorado.
CU Anschutz combines research, education, and patient care in a single innovative and interconnected environment. This is made possible through a partnership of leading institutions, CU Anschutz, a robust health science university, home to education and research, two hospitals, UCHealth University of Colorado Hospital and Children's Hospital Colorado,
and industry partnerships
that help us advance the
latest healthcare innovations.
That's the power of an
academic medical campus.
Each individual institution
has a unique role,
but remains focused on
collaborating, working faster,
and more effectively
to improve human health
through the latest clinical trials,
therapies, and treatments.
Now, let's see how each
of these mission areas come together.
First, let's talk about education.
CU Anschutz is home to over
4,500 students studying
to be future doctors, nurses,
dentists, pharmacists,
researchers, and leaders in public health.
Many CU Anschutz health programs rank
among the top 20 in the country.
Next, let's talk about
research and innovation.
Our university faculty
and researchers serve
many different roles.
They teach future healthcare
professionals while
investigating the latest in
biomedical health research
to find new treatments, offer
the latest clinical trials,
and eventually bring
these discoveries directly
to patients and communities.
Which leads us to our third
and final mission area, patient care.
Not only are the latest treatments
and technologies created
right here on campus
by university faculty and researchers,
but we are putting them directly to use
to improve patient
outcomes and save lives.
CU Anschutz faculty and
students treat patients at our
highly ranked partner
institutions on campus, UC Health
and Children's Hospital, Colorado.
Faculty additionally serve
patients in on-campus clinics
and across the state of Colorado.
What happens when all these
institutions join together on
an academic medical campus?
Students learn from
experts in their fields.
Those experts also conduct
the latest research
to help improve human health
and help their patients
receive the best treatment
to live healthier lives.
That's CU Anschutz, where
education research, innovation,
and patient care come
together to improve lives.
