The Benefits of a Metropolis...
While studying in Dr. Osinski's group, you will be in the middle of New Mexico's largest city. You will enjoy shopping in the city's two major malls, as well as small, culturally-oriented merchants you can only find in the southwest. You will also be able to see all the latest films at the 24-screen movie theater.
In Albuquerque, you will also be part of a thriving art community. Numerous galleries let you
relax and enjoy fine art in your free time. The Albuquerque Museum attracts both national and local talent, which
you can see for free. It also puts on workshops in various disciplines,
allowing you to refresh your spirit and refine your skill. In addition, you will be only an hour and a half from
Santa Fe, the cultural center of the Southwest.
Albuquerque also provides you with opportunities in the performing arts. You can enjoy an evening of fine music with the nationally-renowned New Mexico Symphony. You can watch and participate in both traditional and experimental drama in the city's several community theaters. Feel all the excitement of big-city theater at UNM's Popejoy Hall, which regularly features touring Broadway theater companies and musicians. Or see your favorite band at Albuquerque's spacious stadiums and amphitheaters.
