Enrichment Program

The Enrichment Program connects the intellectually curious adult to DU's outstanding faculty, facilities, and programming, and Denver's rich cultural community through non-credit courses. With adult education offered via short evening and weekend classes, you can explore a wide range of subjects: from history and contemporary issues to science, literature, and the arts—without the pressures of exams, grades, or admission requirements.

Registration Now Open for Fall Courses and Lectures

Over 50 multi-week and one-night lectures on current events, history, science, literature, music, art, religion and more. All classes and lectures live, online via Zoom.

To register the day a class starts, call Student Support at 303-871-2291 for assistance.

"The strength of the program is due to an outstanding faculty that has a great breadth of knowledge and experience. Courses consistently give interesting and informative material that appeals to a diverse group of students."

Annette Fear

"I always look forward to the Enrichment Program because of the small class size taught by a distinguished professor with authoritative knowledge. The program has interesting topics with a wide range of diversity for everyone. I always come away with an 'Ah ha moment.'"

Ryan Peacock

"The DU Enrichment Program is the best opportunity I have found to satisfy my intellectual curiosity and integrate lifelong learning into my schedule. I have taken several classes over the years and they always provide an engaging perspective on issues that I care about."

Christina & Scott Conley

"The Enrichment Program has been an enjoyable way for my husband and I to spend our time learning about a new topic to employ thought-provoking discussions. The classroom discussions are engaging and allow for dialogue amongst students and teachers."

Course Resources

Because Enrichment Program classes are offered in abbreviated scheduling formats, you generally cannot be added to a course after the initial class session. You may withdraw from the class at any time during the term by contacting the Student Support Center at 303-871-2291. 100% refunds will be made for those classes dropped at least seven days before the first class period. Students dropping a class after the seven-days limit will receive no refund.
Every attempt is made to deliver all scheduled Enrichment Program classes. When extenuating circumstances occur, such as low enrollments or instructor illness, course cancellations may be necessary. When possible, cancellations are made approximately one week in advance of the beginning of the course and you will be notified immediately via e-mail or telephone by Student Support Center staff. A full refund will be issued.
Occasionally, discounts are offered for Enrichment Program courses. When registering online be sure to enter the appropriate discount code where indicated. If you qualify for a discount, but do not have the related code, please call the Student Support Center at 303-871-2291. Note: Only one discount allowed per non-credit course.
