Overview When industrialist Andrew Carnegie announced the creation of Carnegie Tech in 1900, his intention was to build a "first class technical school" for the sons of local mill workers. Little did he know that by the year 2000, Carnegie Mellon would become a world-class research university that attracts the best and brightest men and women from all across our nation and the world. The College of Engineering retains the school’s original name of the Carnegie Institute of Technology and is often referred to as CIT. This is a place for people who want to discover, create, design and invent. Our curricula are designed to prepare students to rise to the top of their fields and to take their places as tomorrow’s leaders. Students The college is comprised of five main departments, each of which award bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate degrees. Approximately 300 bachelor’s degrees and 250 graduate degrees are awarded by CIT each year. Each of these graduates leaves Carnegie Mellon with more than technical competence. Our graduates excel in their chosen specialties because they possess the "soft skills" and broad knowledge base necessary to succeed in today’s workplace. Here are just a few of those skills: |
