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:
“[The Republicans] offer ... a detailed agenda for national renewal.... [On] reducing illegitimacy ... the state will use ... funds for programs to reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancies, to promote adoption, to establish and operate children’s group homes, to establish and operate residential group homes for unwed mothers, or for any purpose the state deems appropriate. None of the taxpayer funds may be used for abortion services or abortion counseling.”
—Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
