Do you want to make a positive impact with your career?

We focus on how you can choose your career to have the *greatest* impact whether by focusing on alleviating global poverty, trying to prevent future pandemics, trying to prevent nuclear war, and lots more.

Every semester we run a seminar that outlines all of the areas in which you can have the most impact with your career. The seminar is a bit of a time commitment, taking 3-4 hours per week for eight weeks. There will be weekly meetings and reading assignments. Food will be provided at no cost to you. We have both a general seminar on the aforementioned topic, as well as cause-specific seminars (AI safety, particularly).

Our group also runs weekly dinners and various different socials.

We are part of a global movement with groups at many top university. We frequently collaborate with Stanford, MIT, and Cambridge. We welcome both undergrads and graduate students.

The American Association for Aerosol Research (AAAR) describes itself as “a nonprofit
professional organization for scientists and engineers who wish to promote and communicate
technical advances in the field of aerosol research.” The Carnegie Mellon University student
chapter of AAAR provides a link between students at CMU and the larger AAAR community.

of aerosol research

We work towards these objectives in many ways, including, but not limited to:
- Engaging in educational outreach (for example, presenting scientific demos to local
children through CMU’s Leonard Gelfand Center for Service Learning and Outreach)
- Organizing the Annual Donora Lecture, in which an invited speaker from the field of
aerosol research comes to campus, gives a talk, and engages with students and faculty
associated with our chapter.
- Building a strong sense of community among members through summer barbecues and
biweekly coffee/tea hours.
