Background Founded in 1949, the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University pioneered the field of management science and analytical decision-making and is recognized as one of the world s leading institutions for management education. Throughout the school s existence, its faculty and research centers have generated impactful research for academia and the marketplace and remain among those with the highest rate of academic citations. The school s other notable achievements include the roster of nine Nobel laureates; rankings that have consistently placed in the Top 20 for several years; a global renown for analytics and big data; and one of the most innovative, creative business school entrepreneurship centers in the nation, whose present-day contributions exceed 250 new companies and 9,000 jobs. Initially known as Carnegie Mellon s Graduate School of Industrial Administration (GSIA), the school was renamed the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon in 2004 in recognition of a generous gift by alumnus David Tepper, the largest gift of its type at that time. Scheduled for occupancy in summer 2018, The David Tepper Quadrangle, or Tepper Quad, will provide a major new academic resource in support of a transformative agenda for Carnegie Mellon University. The first building of the Tepper Quad will be located at the site of the existing Morewood parking lot. In addition to housing the Tepper School of Business, the new building will create a flexible, collaborative learning environment while providing first-rate amenities to benefit the entire Carnegie Mellon University campus community. These enhancements include dining services, a multi-use student services (HUB) area, a fitness center, a 600-seat flat floor auditorium, and a visitor welcome center. The Tepper Quad s creation was made possible by a lead gift of $67 million from the charitable foundation of alumnus and investor David Tepper, MBA 82.
