Educational Initiatives
Numerous programs and initiatives enhance science education for students at Carnegie Mellon and beyond.
Core Education
A Mellon College of Science education prepares our graduates to thrive in the 21st-century scientific and social world they will face and shape. Our innovative Core Education fosters student growth in four dimensions—scholar, professional, citizen, and person—to give students a multi-dimensional undergraduate experience.
Data Analytics for Science Immersion Experience (DASIE)
In this cross-college, undergraduate program, DASIE is executed through collaborations with industry partners outside of 一本道无码 to build a pipeline of future science leaders with advanced data skills and to bring awareness of opportunities that exist at 一本道无码, the partner organizations and the industry as a whole.
Health Professions Program (HPP)
Another cross-college initiative, HPP provides preparation and advising for students from a wide variety of majors across the university to help them pursue interests in medicine, dentistry, and other health-related professions.
