  • Chief Data Officer Certificate Program
    CHIEF DATA OFFICER CERTIFICATE PROGRAM The success of a modern enterprise is increasingly dependent on its ability to maximize value from data and manage large, diverse, and rapidly changing data. Most executives admit that their organizations mismanage their information assets, leading to missed business opportunities and undue expense. To establish a data-driven culture change in an organization, management needs to engage with stakeholders across the enterprise to secure buy-in and ongoing support in treating data as an asset — not data as a byproduct. To cope with these challenges, many organizations are appointing data governance executives, or Chief Data Officers (CDO), whose responsibilities span the recognition of opportunities afforded by new data sources to ensuring compliance with emerging regulations around security, privacy, and bias. The CMU Heinz College Chief Data Officer Certificate Program provides current or future CDOs a thorough understanding of critical data management related responsibilities and the foundations for developing a robust enterprise data governance program. The 13-module CDataO certificate program will cover key areas – data engineering, data science, decision making, emerging technology, change management, CDO operations, communication/influencing/ leadership skills - to help data executives build important data analytical and decision-making capabilities to better support the strategic mission of their organizations. To meet the needs of these busy professionals, the six-month program will be delivered as a hybrid model, blending the benefits of focused in-person sessions at our CMU campus in Pittsburgh, PA with synchronous distance learning. Participants can expect to develop a tight-knit cohort of their peers. Distance teaching allows participants the flexibility to engage at their own pace to develop their skills to become an effective data executive.

  • Inter Actions Department of Physics 2015
    INTER ACTIONS DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS 2015 The Department of Physics has a very accomplished family of alumni. In this issue we begin to recognize just a few of them with stories submitted by graduates from each of the decades since 1950. We want to invite all of you to renew and strengthen your ties to our department. We would love to hear from you, telling us what you are doing and commenting on how the department has helped in your career and life. Alumna returns to the Physics Department to Implement New MCS Core Education When I heard that the Department of Physics needed a hand implementing the new MCS Core Curriculum, I couldn’t imagine a better fit. Not only did it provide an opportunity to return to my hometown, but Carnegie Mellon itself had been a fixture in my life for many years, from taking classes as a high school student to teaching after graduation. I was thrilled to have the chance to return. I graduated from Carnegie Mellon in 2008, with a B.S. in physics and a B.A. in Japanese. Afterwards, I continued to teach at CMARC’s Summer Academy for Math and Science during the summers while studying down the street at the University of Pittsburgh. In 2010, I earned my M.A. in East Asian Studies there based on my research into how cultural differences between Japan and America have helped shape their respective robotics industries. After receiving my master’s degree and spending a summer studying in Japan, I taught for Kaplan as graduate faculty for a year before joining the Department of Physics at Cornell University.
