Building The Intelligent Future at the Tepper School of Business

Strategic Plan 2024-2030

At the Tepper School of Business, we have always been trailblazers. From establishing management science as a scholarly discipline to adopting a human-centered approach that intersects business, analytics, and technology, we have continued to reshape business education.

As the world witnesses the rapid evolution of digital transformation, the Tepper School is already embracing this modern challenge. And, anchored to Carnegie Mellon University, the Tepper School’s faculty are uniquely positioned to empower the next generation of business leaders to harness the potential of artificial intelligence (AI), in particular large language models, and other emerging technology.

While tomorrow’s leaders will need to be adept in AI and analytics, they will also need to be creative and ethical decision makers. At the Tepper School, we inspire a human-driven approach to problem solving, and serve as a hub where diverse stakeholders gather to collaborate and innovate for the benefit of business and society.

This is the moment — the changing world of business demands our intellectual leadership. This is the place — the Tepper School delivers the world’s best combination of analytics and creative problem solving to achieve our vision. This is the strategy — Building The Intelligent Future — will propel the Tepper School’s groundbreaking ideas, and redefine the future of business schools.

I would like to extend my gratitude to the vibrant Tepper School community members who actively engaged in this collective effort shaped by the insights, dedication, and passion of many. 

I am pleased to share with you the new strategic plan for the Tepper School of Business. This living document will serve as our roadmap as we navigate new destinations.

With gratitude,
