At 卡耐基梅隆大学, we do the work that matters to solve real-world problems. 在商业参与中心, we facilitate the connections that make that work possible.
The CBE team works with both external industry and government partners and CMU faculty seeking to collaborate with those partners. We start and guide the conversations — with the right people — that lead to sponsored research partnerships, 技术转让, capstone项目, 人才招聘等等.
我们期待与您见面, 了解你的目标和挑战, and exploring the possibilities for partnership here at CMU.
