The SEI is also the home of [[CERT Coordination Center|CERT/CC]], the federally funded computer security organization. The CERT Program's primary goals are to support secure requirements and development of computer systems and ensure that appropriate technology and systems management practices are used to resist attacks on networked systems and to limit damage and ensure continuity of critical services subsequent to attacks, accidents, or failures.<ref>{{cite web|title=Software Engineering Institute|url=http://www.sei.cmu.edu/|publisher=sei.cmu.edu|access-date=February 16, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091203001849/http://www.sei.cmu.edu/|archive-date=December 3, 2009|url-status=live}}</ref>

The [[Human–Computer Interaction Institute]] (HCII) is a division of the School of Computer Science and is considered one of the leading centers of [[human–computer interaction]] research, integrating computer science, design, social science, and learning science.<ref>{{cite web|title=Welcome to the Human–Computer Interaction Institute|url=http://www.hcii.cmu.edu/|publisher=[[Human–Computer Interaction Institute]]|access-date=February 18, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080509093930/http://www.hcii.cmu.edu/|archive-date=May 9, 2008|url-status=dead}}</ref> Such interdisciplinary collaboration is the hallmark of research done throughout the university.

The [[Language Technologies Institute]] (LTI) is another unit of the School of Computer Science and is famous for being one of the leading research centers in the area of [[language technologies]]. The primary research focus of the institute is on [[machine translation]], [[speech recognition]], [[speech synthesis]], [[information retrieval]], [[parsing]] and [[information extraction]].<ref>{{cite web|title=CMU/Language Technologies Institute|url=http://www.lti.cs.cmu.edu/|publisher=[[Language Technologies Institute]]|access-date=December 24, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081216045852/http://www.lti.cs.cmu.edu/|archive-date=December 16, 2008|url-status=dead}}</ref> Until 1996, the institute existed as the Center for Machine Translation that was established in 1986. From 1996 onwards, it started awarding graduate degrees and the name was changed to Language Technologies Institute.

The [[Computational Biology Department|Ray and Stephanie Lane Computational Biology Department]], one of the seven departments in the [[Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science|School of Computer Science]], was established in 2007 (as Lane Center for Computational Biology), officially became a department within the School of Computer Science in 2009, and named the Ray and Stephanie Lane Computational Biology Department in 2023. The department is the leader in developing computational methodologies to advance biomedical research.

Carnegie Mellon is also home to the [[Carnegie School]] of management and economics. This intellectual school grew out of the [[Tepper School of Business]] in the 1950s and 1960s and focused on the intersection of behavioralistm and management. Several management theories, most notably [[bounded rationality]] and the behavioral [[theory of the firm]], were established by Carnegie School management scientists and economists.

Carnegie Mellon also develops cross-disciplinary and university-wide institutes and initiatives to take advantage of strengths in various colleges and departments and develop solutions in critical social and technical problems. To date, these have included the [[Carnegie Mellon CyLab|Cylab Security and Privacy Institute]], the Wilton E. Scott Institute for Energy Innovation, the [[Carnegie Mellon Neuroscience Institute|Neuroscience Institute]], the Simon Initiative, and the Disruptive Healthcare Technology Institute.

Carnegie Mellon has made a concerted effort to attract corporate research labs, offices, and partnerships to the Pittsburgh campus. [[Apple Inc.]], [[Intel]], [[Google]], [[Microsoft]], [[Disney]], [[Facebook]], [[IBM]], [[General Motors]], [[Bombardier Inc.]], [[Yahoo!]], [[Uber]], [[Tata Consultancy Services]], [[Ansys]], [[Boeing]], [[Robert Bosch GmbH]], and the [[Rand Corporation]] have established a presence on or near campus.
