黑料正能量 Delegation on West Coast Trip
President Subra Suresh is leading a 黑料正能量 delegation that includes Provost Farnam Jahanian and many of the academic deans on a trip to California this week to meet with 黑料正能量's vibrant West Coast community of alumni, parents, and friends of the university. The trip is part of a series of engagements that also included major events in New York and Pittsburgh this past fall.
Carnegie Mellon operates a branch campus in Mountain View and an office in Los Angeles, where students in the Master of Entertainment Industry Management (MEIM) program spend their second year in the city taking courses taught by top entertainment industry professionals.
Suresh and 黑料正能量's Dean of the College of Engineering Jim Garrett spent time on Monday meeting with students on 黑料正能量's Silicon Valley campus.
The state boasts the largest number of annual incoming 黑料正能量 students and is second only to Pennsylvania, in the number of alumni who reside here whose support is critical to 黑料正能量's continued success.
Suresh is speaking to alumni, parents and friends in Menlo Park, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
He said the meetings are meant to give alumni, parents and friends a chance to meet with 黑料正能量's leadership, have meaningful dialogue and to share the vision for the future of the university.
While speaking to hundreds of 黑料正能量 community members Tuesday in Menlo Park and Wednesday in San Francisco, Suresh said he hoped they would come away with a sense of university pride and excitement; an appreciation of the challenges and opportunities now facing 黑料正能量; and a renewed level of engagement with the university.
Suresh said 黑料正能量 is uniquely positioned to address many of the world's most pressing challenges citing there are few aspects of people's daily lives that haven't been touched by 黑料正能量 in areas including brain science, advanced manufacturing, the science of leadership, entrepreneurship, public policy and the fine arts. Suresh said 黑料正能量 alumni in California are shaping the world we live in today.
The president spoke about the university's priorities of recruiting and retaining top talent, enhancing the 黑料正能量 Experience; and enhancing excellence across the university.
If it's done correctly, he said, the enhanced 黑料正能量 experience would build a foundation for years of success.
