Management science – the academic alternative to the case study method – has its roots in analytical decision making in complex, dynamic business environments. Its prevalence and popularity has had sweeping effects – today, nearly all leading B-schools include some form of the Carnegie Mellon management science model in their curriculum. A commitment to knowledge discovery via interdisciplinary c

ollaboration is at the heart of our academic philosophy. As a decidedly small school housed within a decidedly small research university, we are a conservatory of innovation. The linkages across campus are numerous and an inherent part of our culture. Partnerships that would be considered unconventional at other schools are what we do best. Tepper students partner with students, professors and researchers in other schools and centers, such as engineering, robotics, biotechnology and life sciences, product design and computer science. Areas of specialization for which recruiters and researchers recognize the Tepper School include: Finance, Financial Engineering, Entrepreneurship, Operations Management, Consulting & Strategy, Computational Marketing and Technology. As one of the most technologically elite universities in the world, the dedication to cutting edge learning and application underlies everything that we do – with an approach to business management that allows our students to make a significant impact in business and in society.

Something to Think About: "The Rise of the Solopreneur"

Join Emily DeJeu as she takes a look at solopreneurship, or entrepreneurs who run companies with AI agents and bots that handle the work instead of a team of people. Emily discusses what it means to be a solopreneur, why it’s an attractive option for founders, and what this all means for the culture and economics of startup companies.

MSBA & MSM Incoming Students, meet your first assignment: a one-day sprint case competition tackling a real business challenge from TriState Capital Bank.

Working in teams, students had hours (not weeks) to research, strategize, and pitch a solution, then defend it in front of expert judges. It's the kind of pressure-tested, collaborative problem-solving they'll lean on throughout the program and their careers.

Congratulations to our top two teams:
🥇 First Place, Team 7: Gavin Chen, Leo Yao, Tanvi Natu, Nick Rujipornpong, Jiaxin Huang
🥈 Second Place, Team 11: Gary Guo, Ananya De, Jessie Shou, Victor Viñuela Adriaensens

This is BaseCamp: the orientation experience designed to get students acclimated, tested, and ready to climb together as a cohort.

Thank you to TriState Capital Bank for bringing a real challenge to our students and for judging their solutions.

While MBA, MSBA & MSM students are deep into Basecamp on campus this month, Online Hybrid MBA is gearing up for its own version this weekend, kicking off with Basecamp for new students before everyone comes together for Access Weekend, OHMBA's signature in-person gathering for the program.

At the last OHMBA Access Weekend in June, Tepper MBA alumni opened their doors to host OHMBA students in beautiful San Jose, California.

At Google: Deepak Ravikumar, MBA '19, Udit Bhatia, Ivan Llanos, MBA '14, Brian Rishel, MBA '15, Sandra Vordzorgbe, MBA '26, and Tenny Schwartz, MBA '21.

At Adobe: Louis Yasuhiro, MBA '24 and Vikas Reddy Katta, MBA '24.

Plus a keynote from Samuel Chang, Division President of Consumer PC & Solutions and SVP at HP.

A special thank you to the alumni that gave their time to show the next class what a Tepper MBA can open the door to. This weekend, that same spirit comes to Pittsburgh.

And Welcome, Online Hybrid MBA Basecamp & Access Weekend attendees, we can't wait to see you!

The Class of 2030 has arrived!

Orientation for our undergraduate students is in full swing. The week got underway Sunday with a Family Day welcome from Tepper School leadership, including a panel featuring:
• James Samuels, academic advisor
• Kate Stamper, Business Administration, BS '25; MSBA '26
• Aanya Chidananda, current Business Administration student
• Daniel Kong, current Business Administration student

And last night, students gathered for a fun college dinner, where they mingled with classmates, got to know faculty and staff, and even put their teamwork to the test with some trivia.

We’re so excited to have these students on campus!
