Working at Carnegie Mellon

About Carnegie Mellon

Carnegie Mellon is a national research university of about 9,500 students and 4,000 faculty, research and administrative staff. Carnegie Technical School was founded in 1900 in Pittsburgh by industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, whose vision was to open a vocational training school for the sons and daughters of working-class Pittsburghers.

The school was renamed Carnegie Institute of Technology in 1912, when it became a degree-granting institution. In 1967, Carnegie Tech merged with the Mellon Institute to form Carnegie Mellon University.
