Historical Note

The Colorado-Wyoming Academy of Science was established in 1927 to unite the scientific men and women of the states into an organization for the development and dissemination of scientific knowledge. The first meeting was held in November of 1927 at the University of Wyoming. Annual meetings are held on a rotational basis at Colorado-Wyoming colleges and universities, wherein papers are presented, connections are made, and practical and technical information are exchanged. Awards are granted for outstanding papers presented in the sciences at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. Abstracts of all papers presented at the annual meeting are published in the Journal of the Colorado-Wyoming Academy of Science. The Colorado-Wyoming Academy of Science supports the Junior Academy of Science, which was founded in 1947.
