The H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management holds fast to the late senator's commitment to serving the public good. Formerly the Carnegie Mellon School of Urban and Public Affairs (SUPA), the Heinz School works to encourage ideals in its students, proudly training our next generation of leaders.
History of the Heinz School In 1968, the R. K. Mellon Foundation endowed Carnegie Mellon with an initial grant of $10 million for the purpose of creating a school dedicated to the study of public affairs. The resulting institution, the School of Urban and Public Affairs (SUPA), is dedicated to training leaders capable of addressing complex problems in American urban communities. In the ensuing decades, SUPA enjoyed exploding enrollment, attracted a respected faculty, and rocketed to the top of the national ranking for schools of public affairs. In 1992, SUPA was renamed the H. John Heinz III School of Public Policy and Management (the Heinz School), in honor of the late senator. At that time, Senator Heinz's congressional papers were moved to Hamburg Hall to form the Heinz Archives. The goal of the Heinz School is to be the undisputed number one school of public policy and management in the nation. Today, it enjoys an international reputation for excellence in educational programs and faculty research. It offers multiple degree tracks, including internationally acclaimed programs in
Heinz School graduates serve in key managerial positions across a wide range of government, business, and non-profit organizations. The Heinz family continues to be an important part of the Heinz School and Carnegie Mellon University. For more information about the Heinz School, visit www.heinz.cmu.edu/about. Back to Top |
