Admissions
The admissions deadline has passed, however, we will continue to consider applications until our Fall 2018 class is full.
Who should apply
The MSIT Privacy Engineering program is primarily intended for students who already have a technical degree (e.g. degree in computer science, computer engineering, software engineering or equivalent) or have comparable work experience.
How to apply
Students should apply online to the CMU MSIT Privacy Engineering program via the CMU School of Computer Science application website. All applicants must use the online application website. Paper documents should be scanned and submitted via the website. Your application must contain the following required items, please make certain that you have met all requirements before you submit your application.
Statement of Purpose.
Type a concise one- or two-page statement in this format:
Part I: Briefly state your objective in pursuing the MSIT Privacy Engineering professional graduate degree. Tell us if you have a particular reason for applying to this degree.
Part II: Describe your background in fields particularly relevant to your objective. List here any relevant academic, industrial or commercial experience.
Part III: Include any additional information you wish to supply to the Admissions Committee.
Transcripts
We will request transcripts from you only if you are offered admission into our program; please do not send them otherwise. After receiving your offer, you may submit transcripts from all undergraduate and graduate institutions attended, even if no degree was granted. Transcripts should be in an official sealed envelope. The transcript may be mailed with your application or sent directly from the institution to the admissions coordinator address below.
Resume
Submit your current resume, including a summary of research and industrial experience and a list of publications (if any). Include copies of any peer-reviewed research publications (in English only) that you may have.
GRE Scores
Send your scores to the School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University; Institute Code: 2074, Department Code: 0402. GRE subject tests taken in December will arrive about the middle of January, in time for our review process. We encourage students to take a subject test if it is available to them, but the test is not required. Please ensure that your GRE scores reach us before the application deadline.

The Master of Science in Information Technology—Privacy Engineering (MSIT-PE) degree is a one-year program designed for computer scientists and engineers who wish to pursue careers as privacy engineers or technical privacy managers. Designed in close collaboration with industry and government, this program is intended for students who aspire to play a critical role in building privacy into future products, services, and processes.
This first-of-its kind program responds to the rapidly growing need for technical privacy expertise. As organizations develop new products, services, infrastructures and business processes that facilitate the collection and management of an ever-wider range of customer data, they are discovering that privacy issues need to be addressed from the very beginning of the design process. Over the past several years, both industry and government organizations have created positions for people responsible for ensuring that privacy is an integral part of the design process. These people are brought in as in-house consultants who work as part of multi-disciplinary teams. They have to understand technology and be able to integrate perspectives that span product design, software development, cyber security, human computer interaction, as well as business and legal considerations. Today organizations are already reporting a significant shortage of people who are adequately trained to play this increasingly crucial role, while demand is continuing to increase.
The MSIT in Privacy Engineering program offers two tracks 12 month and 16 months. These tracks combine the best and most successful elements gleaned from Carnegie Mellon University’s long and distinguished history of professional masters programs. Offered jointly by the School of Computer Science and College of Engineering, the program includes two semesters of courses taught by leading academic privacy and security experts. The 12 month track concludes with a summer-long learning-by-doing, capstone project, where students will be brought in as privacy consultants to work on client projects. The 16 month track allows students the option to work a summer internship, do the capstone project in the fall, and graduate the following December. Students of the program will be well prepared for jobs as privacy engineers and technical privacy managers.
Thanks to a partnership with the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP), the MSIT-PE program offers IAPP Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP) certification exams to students in its program. The exams are offered at a substantial discount to those students who become IAPP student members.
