Introduction

Engineering and Public Policy is a Bachelor program taught at Carnegie Mellon University, USA. Intake: Fall, Spring. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (4 years) options.

Engineering and Public Policy is an undergraduate program in the Department of Engineering and Public Policy. It trains students to work at the intersection of science, technology, and society, with skills for policy analysis, risk assessment, data science, and decision-making. Students use this expertise to address complex problems across business, government, and nonprofits in areas such as climate change, misinformation, national security, artificial intelligence, disaster response, privacy, and critical infrastructure.

The program supports multiple study paths. Students can pursue an additional major in Engineering and Public Policy alongside a primary engineering department, adding preparation in analyzing social and political problems. The department also offers an additional major in Science, Technology and Public Policy for students earning a bachelor of science outside the College of Engineering, and a Technology and Policy minor for non-engineering majors. An Information Security, Privacy and Policy minor is open to undergraduates across the university.
