The Heinz College

The Heinz College<http://www.heinz.cmu.edu/index.aspx> at Carnegie Mellon University<http://www.cmu.edu/> is home to two top ranked schools: the School of Information Systems and Management and the School of Public Policy and Management.

Smith Prize for educational excellence in Analytics and is the only academic institution that has won both the Von Neumann Theory Prize for research and the UPS Prize for educational excellence from INFORMS. The College is a center of excellence for research in issues that span people, policy, and technology, and has deep strengths in combining data science with decision science and social science. The Information Systems, Information Security, and Public Policy programs aspire to educate men and women of intelligent action who use technology and analytics to solve important societal problems.

The Positions
