The Technology Consulting in the Community course (TCinC) is a special university-community learning partnership. Non-profit organizations, schools, and government agencies improve their technology use, management, planning and integration by working with Carnegie Mellon students. Students develop technical consulting and management skills while collaborating on site with a leader of a local organization.

Student Testimonial
"Technology Consulting in the Community has been one of the best experiences of my college career. By working with Sustainable Pittsburgh, I learned to manage a small project in a complex environment, cause it to have lasting impact, and concisely communicate its outcomes."
