Programs
In Fall 2002, Carnegie Mellon initiated a full-time and part-time Masters of Science in Software Engineering. The Software Engineering Masters are divided into a Technical Track, aimed at advancing software developers to senior positions and architect roles, and the Development Management Track, aimed at providing software developers with technical project management and development management skills.
In Fall 2008, Carnegie Mellon initiated the Software Management Masters program. The program targets senior software developers and managers that wish to pursue senior management and executive careers. The part-time MS SM program offers 4 concentrations to select from, in Product Development, Entrepreneurship, Enterprise Innovation, and Service Management.
For several years, Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley operated a long-distance capability to Pittsburgh's Tepper School of Business.
The campus now offers full-time versions of the MS Software Engineering and MS Software Management degrees. Both programs are 12-month programs, that are completed entirely at the Silicon Valley campus. The MS SE program offers the Technical and Development Management tracks. The full-time MS SM program has a special focus on software innovation and entrepreneurship.
In Fall 2008, a Ph.D. program in Electrical and Computer Engineering was initiated, offering students opportunities for advanced studies and research in the fields of mobility, security, and networking.
In Fall 2009, Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley initiated bi-coastal Masters degree programs in Information Technology with specializations in Mobility, Information Security, and Software Management through the Information Networking Institute. In the bi-coastal programs, students divide their time between the campuses in Pittsburgh and Silicon Valley.

Famous quotes containing the word programs:
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
