UDream Sponsorship

UDream partners provide valuable support for all aspects of the UDream program and the experience of the highly qualified young professionals coming to learn, work and live in Pittsburgh. If you are interested in learning more about becoming an employment partner or sponsor, please email us at udream@andrew.cmu.edu.

This 22-week post-graduate experience is fully funded thanks to the generous support of Carnegie Mellon Architecture, local foundation partnerships and the commitment of regional industry leaders.

about UDream

2024 Employment Partners

The summer academic program is followed by a fall internship in Pittsburgh. Participants are guaranteed an internship upon completion of the academic program, and employers and participants are matched based off of the interview process.

The following firms participated in the 2024 summer match day, during which UDream participants interviewed for the 14-week fall internship. These local and regional architecture firms, construction managers, community developers and other professional organizations recognize the need to increase diversity in our field and have committed to hiring the UDream participants through a paid internship.
