Uncommon skills. You’re excellent at what you do. You have the drive to achieve your potential, a curiosity about the unknown and a limited attachment to comfort zones. We call that a “good start.”

But you also realize the need to back up your decisions with more than a gut feeling and the need to strengthen your leadership skills in order to get things done. That’s what makes you the Tepper type.

Tepper MBAs possess an unrivaled advantage honed through our renowned approach to leadership development alongside advanced analytics. It’s an approach that prepares our graduates to make better business decisions and maximizes leadership skills for successful implementation of those decisions across the organization — all of which you can learn without walking away from a job you do exceptionally well.

That’s why the name “Tepper” means more in the market — and why a Tepper MBA gives you the uncommon skills that allow you to stand apart.

Leadership + Analytics tepper.cmu.edu/pt/uncommonskills

Ours was one of only 30 teams accepted from more than 1,500 applicants, placing 8th in this global competition. cmuhyperloop.com

Part-time students are vital members of the full Tepper School community. Starting from the top: Pitch Night, a forum to share ideas with all CMU graduate programs; the Winter Formal, another can’t-miss soirée; the International Festival, one of the Tepper School’s biggest social events; part-time students share classes with their full-time colleagues; small class sizes mean you’re part of a tight-knit group.

No matter how you earn it, it’s a Tepper MBA. Whether full- or part-time, all of our programs deliver the same focus on leadership and analytics, and the same core curriculum taught by world-renowned faculty. So you know that you’ll graduate with the unique skills to stand apart in the marketplace.

In fact, because the learning is the same, you can switch to full-time for any reason — like an internship opportunity or career change. And you won’t miss a beat in the transition.

While we’re known for our rigorous curriculum, we welcome students from varied backgrounds who share a motivation to learn and a desire to gain the analytical and leadership skills that the Tepper School offers. That’s why when we admit you to the program, we know that you have what it takes to succeed while continuing to excel in your career.

As a Tepper MBA, you also get every advantage of a global alumni network to support you. Even if you plan to stay in Pittsburgh, you’ll have access to alumni leaders around the world at a moment’s notice. That’s a critical resource to have in today’s global economy.

The new center of the CMUniverse. Imagine this: There you are, enjoying your coffee in the Tepper Quad hub — the dazzling B-school atrium flooded with sunshine — and beside you, two Carnegie Mellon engineering students are kicking around an idea for a new product that strikes you as absolutely ingenious. When you overhear them struggling with how to bring their idea to market, you’ll chime in, “Excuse me. I can help with that.”

In 2018, the new Tepper Quad will be open for business. Our new building will sit at the center of the Carnegie Mellon campus — elevating the business school as an inter-connected partner for all seven colleges and serving as the pivotal hub for exchanging ideas.

While you’re learning alongside management researchers and professors, you’ll interact at the Tepper Quad with entrepreneurs, architects, robotics designers, computer scientists and other brilliant, creative minds from around the world. And you’ll be taking advantage of it every day.

Tour your new spacetepper.cmu.edu/tepperquad

In the last decade, only one business school in the U.S. has been designed and built to occupy the very center of its university campus. (Hint: It’s us.) The Tepper Quad will include built-in garage incubators where students will innovate, collaborate and test new ideas.
