The Department of Environmental Studies Recruitment Day will be at the Sustainability, Energy, and Environment Community Building located at 4001 Discovery Drive, Boulder, CO 80303. 

SEEC is a three story building with stairs and elevators. You can find maps of each floor here. 

Pro tip: The mountains are always to the west in SEEC, so if you are looking for an S room, know that stands for South. N stands for North. 

Please follow these instructions to claim your free parking permit for the MENV Admitted Student Day. 

If you are driving to Boulder, we will provide you with a parking permit to be used at SEEC. Please see information above.

There is a shuttle that takes folks between Boulder and the Denver Airport. You can see the schedule for this bus here. You can use RTD's mobile ticketing app to purchase your ticket here.

Boulder has ride share (Lyft and Uber) available for a fee.
