CSU-Pueblo

Academics

CSU-Pueblo is one of only three schools in the nation to offer a degree in mechatronics, which combines electrical and mechanical engineering. 

The Malik and Seeme Hasan School of Business ranks among the top 15 percent of all business schools internationally because of the unconditional accreditation of both its undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business administration by the AACSB International Board of Directors.

CSU-Pueblo offers a unique graduation Incentive. Colorado students who sign a contract and graduate in four years could receive more than just a diploma when they cross the stage. CSU-Pueblo students can enter a contract, which could reward them with an incentive check of up to $1500 if they graduate in four years. This plan requires students to declare a major and sign an agreement upon entering CSU-Pueblo, complete a minimum of 120 hours of CSU-Pueblo coursework, and fulfill all graduation requirements within four years of matriculation.
