The Carnegie Institute of Technology (CIT) is known as one of the nation's top engineering colleges. It is the oldest and largest college at Carnegie Mellon with approximately 1,400 full-time undergraduates, 550 graduate students and 110 faculty members.
Here, students are exposed to engineering courses from the start; students take two introductory courses during their first-year to learn more about those specific departments. In your first semester, you will have the opportunity to experience CIT’s project and research based curriculum that includes problem-solving, life-long learning and real-world applications. In an introductory course, you can learn how to build a steam engine, how to build a bridge that will withstand the weight of your professor or how to engineer a “greener world.”
