Carnegie Mellon University
The Governor's Institute in Physical Sciences (GIPSE) is a two-week residential institute offered in July on Carnegie Mellon’s campus. In the fall of 1998, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Ridge empowered the Pennsylvania Department of Education to begin formulating a plan for the Governor’s Institutes and Academies as professional development opportunities for the state’s teachers from the elementary through high school grade levels. Carnegie Mellon in partnership with the Department of Education offered the first GIPSE during the summer of 1999.
