Description of Work Unit | Denver is the capital of Colorado and the twenty-first largest city in the United States, sprawling over six counties and 3,497 square miles of the High Plains and the Rocky Mountain foothills. Centered at the confluence of the South Platte River and Cherry Creek, the city and county of Denver together have a population of about 716,500. At an elevation of 5,280 feet, Denver has been nicknamed “The Mile High City.” More a conglomeration of suburbs than a single city, the Denver metropolitan area consists of Denver, Arapahoe, Jefferson, Boulder, and Adams Counties and has a population of about 3.4 million. This area forms the cultural, economic, political, and social center of Colorado. The Spur campus is located at the new National Western Center (NWC) and affords CSU the chance to establish a community-engaged research presence, working with our existing 25+ partner organizations to advance urban ecological and sociological research, as well as establishing citizen science programs. Given its intended use as a living laboratory, CSU’s Spur campus at the NWC will establish a data storage framework for existing baseline data on the NWC site and surrounding areas. Research Associates located at the MARC are assigned to CAES or an academic department at Colorado State University, report to the respective unit lead, and conduct research, education, and outreach programs along the Front Range of Colorado and at other locations in Colorado. Programs at the MARC include:

Position Summary | This is a full-time, salaried, benefits-eligible position.

This is a highly collaborative role that will support MARC managers, research scientist, faculty, Extension professionals, and graduate students. Due to the nature of the research and educational mission of MARC and Spur, the work schedule will vary. Occasional nights and weekend work will be necessary. |
