Summer Orientation


The information below is for students starting in May 2023
(The August 2023 Orientation Portal is released in late-May)



Welcome to the Heinz College Community! We are excited to introduce you to Carnegie Mellon University and life as a Heinzer. As a new student, we believe that orientation is the best way to prepare you for your upcoming experience. During orientation you will have an opportunity to engage with current students, faculty, staff, and other new incoming students. Over the course of the summer you will be invited to participate in asynchronous, live/online, and in-person/on-campus orientation sessions. 

Starting March 23rd, we are excited to offer our Digital Orientation Library. This on-demand library will provide students with pre-recorded sessions that will cover themes ranging from the Heinz College student experience to suggestions for moving to Pittsburgh.

During the month of April we will offer two live online orientation sessions. These sessions will be hosted by the MISM Program Office, Heinz College Academic & Advising Services, Associate Dean for the School of Information Systems, and more! Don’t forget to add these events to your own personal calendar after registering!

Orientation will conclude with three days of in-person/on-campus sessions beginning on May 9th. The in-person sessions will prepare students both socially and professionally for the start of their degree.

Please Note: ALL ORIENTATION SESSIONS REQUIRE MANDATORY ATTENDANCE. Please take time to explore the full orientation schedule below.

 

If you haven't received your Andrew ID, please let us know ASAP! You'll need your Andrew ID to access or participate in some orientation sessions.
