Heinz Endowments Gift of $13 Million to Heinz School
On October 26th, 2007 Carnegie Mellon received more than $22 million in grants from The Heinz Endowments, one of the largest private foundation grants in the university's history. The 
grants will be used to strengthen the H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management, expand teaching and research in green chemistry and sustainability, and encourage more innovations in robotics and computer science.
The majority of the grant money - $13 million - will be used to support the Heinz School's strategic plan, which includes the creation of a new school of information systems management (IS). The IS school will serve as a counterpart with the Heinz School of Public Policy and Management to form a new college, the name of which is being finalized. The gift will be used to increase the college's endowment, allow the hiring of new faculty and renovate classroom and conference facilities.
