Meeting of the Minds
Meeting of the Minds is an annual symposium at Carnegie Mellon University that gives students an opportunity to present their research and project work to a wide audience of faculty, fellow students, family members, industry representatives and the larger community. Through this experience, students learn how to bridge the gap between conducting research and presenting it to a wider audience.
Due to the pandemic, we have moved Meeting of the Minds online. We encourage you to explore our students’ work and learn more about their research.
Special thanks
For many years, Meeting of the Minds has had the enthusiastic support from several organizations in Qatar. In particular, we would like to offer our sincerest appreciation to QNRF and the Planning and Statistics Authority for their ongoing dedication to undergraduate research.
Research at CMU-Q
Research is at the core of Carnegie Mellon and touches nearly every corner of the university. Faculty members at the Qatar campus are actively engaged in projects that have local, regional and international significance.
Most faculty members contribute to the CMU-Q body of work through studies funded by Qatar National Research Fund, as well as internal seed research funds.
Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar
For more than a century, Carnegie Mellon University has challenged the curious and passionate to imagine and deliver work that matters. A private, top-ranked and global university, Carnegie Mellon sets its own course with programs that inspire creativity and collaboration.
In 2004, Carnegie Mellon and Qatar Foundation began a partnership to deliver select programs that will contribute to the long-term development of Qatar. Today, Carnegie Mellon Qatar offers undergraduate programs in biological sciences, business administration, computer science, and information systems.
