Yes! You can apply and be admitted to the RAP before committing to CU Boulder.ÌýThe application to the RAP is separate from the application to CU Boulder, so you are not only able to apply before committing, but you are also able to apply before being admitted (or even before submitting your application!) to CU Boulder. We align our admission process for the RAP to provide students with sufficient time to make an informed decision on whether to commit to CU Boulder and to the RAP. Typically, this means that we notify students in March and then ask that students admitted to the RAP let us know within a week after the CU Boulder decision deadline: (1) whether they are attending CU Boulder and (2) if so, whether they are committing to the RAP. This then allows us to submit our list of RAP members to housing in time to ensure that our members are assigned to our floor in Williams Village North.

Yes, but if you are admitted to both programs, you must choose one. We have different application timelines, so we are in touch to make sure there is no confusion.Ìý

Yes. You will want to preference Williams Village, and then at a later date, we provide Housing with the list of students to be assigned to our floor in WillVill North.

Approximately the first week of April.

No, the requirements with respect to courses (GEEN 1400 First Year Projects Course and COEN 1830 First Year Seminar) fit within the standard requirements for first year students, so they don’t add any additional credit requirements or time.

Williams Village North has the following options: 2 doubles with bath; 2 singles with bath; double with community bath; and single with community bath, but only a few of those. Housing will be able to further elaborate and also explain what is available on the top floor of Williams Village East.

Costs for the different room types can be found here.Ìý

The GE RAP will be housed on the 5th floor of Williams Village (WV) North. If you are looking for a truly gender neutral space where all students in that space are seeking out gender inclusive housing, then that is what the top floor of Williams Village East is designated for. If you want to live there, you can reach out to Housing and simply let them know you would like to live in the gender inclusive community in WillVill East. That way, you could still be part of Engineering Connections and the RAP will be right next door. You can learn more about this option as well as Spectrum on this FAQ page.Ìý

The required RAP course is a project-based course, which requires research but is not a research project, per se.

Each year, the Mortenson Center funds about a half dozen Â鶹ÊÓƵy Learning ApprenticeshipÌýpositions on research relevant to Global Engineering. The types of research vary year-to-year depending on what projects faculty submit for support. The application process takes place in the spring each year.

Many engineering students interested in Study Abroad do so through the Global Engineering Minor,Ìýand our required RAP course counts as an entry point/credits for the minor

is a great place to learn more specifically about Study Abroad opportunities and support.

No, that is associated with the Global Engineering Minor, which we also support but do not require.

All Engineering students will be living in Williams Village, so the RAP doesn't offer a specific opportunity not available to others with respect to classes. There are classrooms in WillVill it is possible that RAP members will be able to take courses there, but the majority of engineering courses will still be taught on central campus.
