Discover Carnegie Mellon

There's no better way to imagine what life is like as a Tartan than to experience it for yourself.

Carnegie Mellon warmly welcomes visitors from around the globe to explore our urban campus and become acquainted with the community's innovations and impacts. Visit our campus, nestled in the heart of Pittsburgh's Oakland neighborhood, to dive into campus life and academic opportunities. While you're here, take a campus tour to discover our unique landmarks, including The Fence (once the world's most-painted object) and alumnus Jonathan Borofsky's "Walking to the Sky" sculpture.

In addition to in-person tours, there are a number of ways for you to experience campus virtually through online tours, panels and other sessions to connect with the Carnegie Mellon community.
