Project ELEVATE is an alliance between Carnegie Mellon University, Johns Hopkins University, and New York University focused on creating a model for private highly selective engineering schools to function with equity, empowerment, and excellence.

Our mission? To help outstanding faculty from diverse backgrounds, like you, advance and succeed in academia.

We know the challenges typically faced by early career faculty as they navigate the tenure process at leading research institutions. You have so much to offer, but barriers exist. We want to remove those obstacles through institutional changes, impactful mentorship, and inclusive professional development.

As Project ELEVATE evolves, you'll be the first to benefit from new initiatives, resources, and opportunities.
