About the Experience CMU-Q Workshop

Participants choose one academic major to explore during the day and take part in activities designed to help them learn about that field. Faculty, staff, and students teach the workshop, giving attendees an opportunity to ask questions about university life. Students may attend Experience CMU-Q more than once to explore different programs.

The available subjects are Biological Sciences, Business Administration, Computer Science, and Information Systems. The Biological Sciences activities introduce students to scientific curiosity, exploring hypotheses, and contributing as young scientists and researchers. Business Administration focuses on a future shaped by data, technology, and human intelligence. Computer Science combines theoretical foundations with practical knowledge, while Information Systems explores the design and implementation of human-centered, technology-driven solutions for organizations, public services, and society.

The workshop is held in person at the CMU-Q building in Education City. Students comparing study areas can also browse training and workshop opportunities or consult the university guide for further information about higher education options.
