Undergraduate Student Senate

What is Senate?

The Carnegie Mellon Undergraduate Student Senate is the undergraduate component of Carnegie Mellon's Student Government Legislative Branch. We are composed of student-elected representatives that represent the unique and diverse culture of our university.

Elected representatives from each Carnegie Mellon college meet on a weekly basis to discuss rising issues on our campus. General Body Meetings are OPEN to everyone, at UC Danforth (Cohon University Center) at 5:20-6:30 pm each Thursday.
Interested in a specific aspect of student life? All committee meetings are open weekly. Specifics here.

Have an idea? We want to hear about it!

Idea abut your college? Reach out to your college’s representatives.
