Impact CMU featured student-led projects with social impact from across the university, including many from the College of Engineering. Projects included AI solutions and volunteering opportunities.
Students and faculty gathered in The Danforth Lounge for the ninth iteration of Impact CMU, an annual showcase at the end of the school year hosted by Design for America (DFA) where students across the university present projects with social impact. The projects were voted on by attendees and faculty judges for three awards: faculty favorite, Design for America, and most impactful. Each winner received $250.
“Impact CMU is a social good showcase where we display different projects from the CMU community focused on tackling various social issues,” said Anna Mathews, co-president of DFA at CMU and a junior studying information systems and human-computer interaction. “It’s a great way for different clubs, organizations, and individuals who are doing projects to showcase their work and celebrate everything they’ve accomplished this year.
