Plans have been announced for Carnegie Mellon University Miami, a 35-acre campus in Miami’s Wynwood neighborhood supported by a $2 billion commitment from Citadel founder and CEO Ken Griffin. The funding is part of Griffin’s $3 billion pledge to Carnegie Mellon University, with the remaining $1 billion allocated to its Pittsburgh campus. Once complete, the Miami campus is expected to support more than 3,500 undergraduate and graduate students, nearly 300 faculty members, and over 600 staff members.
