Student Support

Supporting Today’s Students, Inside and Outside the Classroom

Investing in today’s students ensures that tomorrow's leaders are prepared for the challenges they will face.

Scholarships and graduate fellowships are wonderful ways to help students realize their full potential and advance key research initiatives that will help shape the future.  At the same time, these gifts benefit the university by enabling Carnegie Mellon to attract and retain the best and brightest students.

There are also a wide variety of programs, both for the classroom and for the overall Carnegie Mellon experience, that could be enhanced by your gift.

Everything from student clubs and varsity athletics to the Small Undergraduate Research Grant (SURG) program depends on your support of today’s students.

Carnegie Mellon’s original campus design is said to have been modeled after a ship by the campus’s initial architect Henry Hornbostel. An actual ship's prow taken from the historic cruiser, the USS Pennsylvania, rests atop Roberts Hall, which overlooks Panther Hollow and the Carnegie Museum complex.
