Carnegie Mellon University is stimulating ideas at the World Economic Forum …
… and helping to shape the global, regional and industry agendas.
CMU is one of only 25 universities in the world, 11 in the U.S., invited to join the Global University Leaders Forum (GULF).

And CMU faculty present and participate in panels, labs, councils and sessions that propel ideas among leaders and colleagues worldwide.
