Community of Support for Marginalized Students
COSMOS is a student organization dedicated to diversifying CU Boulder Physics, APS, and Math Departments. We strive to make our departments an inclusive environment and have equal access for the community to help reduce URM/POC isolation in STEM. In addition to community support events like Coffee & Cookies Hour and Movie Night, we also support our members professionally with CV/Resume Workshops, Graduate Student Panels, and more!
