The One World One Water Center for Urban Water Education and Stewardship is a new program at Metropolitan State University of Denver, which was inspired by the 12 feet high, 8 feet deep, and 10 feet wide infinity shaped tear drop sculpture created by artist Rik Sargent (Image to Right). The One World One Water Center will help students become urban water stewards through coursework, co-curricular events, and applied learning activities. Internships will be available. ‌

Mission Statement

The Mission of the One World One Water Center for Urban Water Education and Stewardship at Metropolitan State College of Denver (Metro State) is to prepare an educated, empowered, solution-oriented Colorado citizenry to protect and preserve our precious water resources. Metro State fulfills the mission in three ways:

• Offer an interdisciplinary, hands-on Water Studies minor for students from diverse backgrounds and in any major;

• Provide co-curricular enrichment activities to the entire student population of the Auraria Campus, which includes Metro State, the University of Colorado – Denver, and the Community College of Denver;

• Enhance water stewardship on and beyond campus for the effective use of water resources.

The Pilot Water Studies Minor will provide students with skills necessary to become more knowledgeable of Colorado’s limited water resources, and how to preserve this most precious resource.
