Welcome, Carnegie Mellon Ambassadors
The Carnegie Mellon University story weaves research, creativity, hard work, innovation and a deep-rooted belief in education into a powerful force that is changing the world.
Your ongoing advocacy has immense value and makes a real impact on CMU’s behalf. The stories you find here several times a year will empower you to talk to your friends, families and colleagues about the amazing things happening at CMU.
With the help of our Ambassadors, the story of CMU — an institution poised like no other to have a real and lasting effect on a global society that is rapidly changing — will resonate around the world.

January 2026
Since our founding 125 years ago, Carnegie Mellon University has continually reinvented what’s possible, propelled by bold ideas that strengthen our national economy, enhance global security, advance human health and elevate the human experience. Today, our university community continues to rise to that calling with purpose and impact.
Make Possible: The Campaign for Carnegie Mellon University has concluded as the most successful campaign in CMU’s history. As I shared in my message to the community, and quoted in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: “With this remarkable foundation in place, the possibilities we can achieve together are truly boundless.”
This edition of CMU Ambassadors shines a light on the many ways Carnegie Mellon — buoyed by the momentum of Make Possible — is changing the world for the better by advancing work that matters.
