At the Colorado Center for Policy Studies we apply economic
principles and research results to critical policy issues
through the
Program on
Growth
Issues, the
Program on Education Policy and the
Program on
Tax Policy, with a particular focus on states and localities.
Most of our work can be found right here on this website, making
it accessible to interested citizens and policymakers. We are a
member of the Education Policy Alliance a network of
university-based research units that provide high quality
research on significant education policy and practice issues.
Faculty with expertise in a variety of areas, along with some of
our best students, conduct applied research and provide advice
and information to state and local governments and nonprofit
organizations. The Elizabeth Cushman Internship in Public Policy
funds outstanding students' participation in this work. The Center operates under all laws governing the University of Colorado, including the Rules of the Regents. We are committed to nonpartisan, fact-based examination of the issues. Statements and publications issued from researchers at the Center do not necessarily reflect the views of the University of Colorado or the members of the Advisory Board. We are funded by contracts and grants, in addition to tax-deductible private donations made through the University of Colorado Foundation. Founded in 1999 as the Center for Colorado Policy Studies, the focus was on issues facing the Pikes Peak Region and the state of Colorado. Through the years our work has grown to encompass a broader mission which the name change (adopted in 2008) reflects. |
