Hiking in the backcountry in the BC Rockies - College of the Rockies

About Us

Rocky Mountain Inspired.
Small College Proud.

At College of the Rockies, inspiration comes naturally from the place we call home and from the students who choose us for all or part of their educational journey. For more than 50 years, learners have trusted us to help guide their paths, and we take that responsibility seriously.

As a small college rooted in the Rocky Mountain region, we are committed to providing an exceptional educational experience that is personal, supportive, and connected to the real world. We do this by:

Employing teaching staff who combine strong academic expertise with meaningful real‑world experience, bringing learning to life in and beyond the classroom.
Creating a learning environment where students are never just a number. From course registration and student housing to the cafeteria, Learning Commons, classrooms, and leadership offices, our people are dedicated to supporting student success at every stage.
Fostering a vibrant and healthy campus culture that encourages growth, belonging, and lifelong learning, with opportunities to continue flourishing well after graduation.

Together, these commitments define who we are and how we serve our learners and communities.
This is what it means to be small college proud.
