Anja Hojka

Senior Financial and Administrative Coordinator- Business and Research Services, Heinz College

I started at CMU in 2022

At Heinz College, I handle financial transactions, approve ERs/PRCs, process scholarships, hire students (undergrad to PhD), and train employees on CMU's business and travel policies—ensuring smooth operations for our thriving academic environment.

During my term, I would like the Staff Counci and Benefits Committee to prioritize the areas highlighted by staff in surveys, such as Community Service Opportunities, Health Insurance and Prescription Plans, Extended Tuition Coverage, and Expanding Optional Benefits. Additionally, I would advocate for regular surveys to gather employee feedback and identify evolving needs, ensuring responsive and meaningful changes.

If I could have a superpower, it would be to save all the stray cats in the world.
