Colorado State University has been involved in recreation resource management since 1937, and we are very proud of our tradition and national/international reputation.

Our faculty and students are actively involved in professional organizations such as:

• Resort and Commercial Recreation Association
• National Association for Interpretation
• National Recreation and Park Association
• Travel and Tourism Research Association

The National Association for Interpretation's international headquarters is housed in Fort Collins. This provides a unique and outstanding opportunity for students to meet and interact with national leaders in interpretation during their bachelor's degree program.
