Science and Humanities Scholars Program - Carnegie Mellon University

Science and Humanities Scholars

The Science and Humanities Scholars Program is an innovative program that is designed to enable talented students to develop an undergraduate curricular program that builds upon their interests and achievements in the humanities, natural sciences, mathematics, or social sciences. The program is based on a special general education core that provides an academic base from which students can select a major in either the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences or the Mellon College of Science.

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Mellon College of Science share a common committment to providing students with professional experiences through independent studies or research with distinguished faculty members. Both share an interest in fostering the interdisciplinary, critical thinking and problem-solving skills that lead to success.
