Carnegie Mellon University's Office of Sponsored Programs has been awarded a $615K delivery order from the Defense Department's Acquisition Support Center to establish a task order in support of comprehensive artificial intelligence-related training programs, curriculum development, course facilitation, and certification support.

The work will be performed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with an ultimate completion date of January 22, 2027. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this competitive award, reflecting selection based on technical merit. This contract award aligns with Carnegie Mellon's established expertise in AI education and workforce development, as evidenced by the university's recent $1.21M contract with the Department of the Army for occupational AI technician training and its substantial federal grant portfolio supporting intelligent systems research and development.
This engagement represents a strategic investment by the Defense Department in building institutional capacity for AI workforce readiness through a premier research university with demonstrated capabilities in advanced computer science, machine learning, and educational program delivery. Carnegie Mellon's selection underscores the federal government's prioritization of developing trained personnel in artificial intelligence technologies, a critical national security capability.
