University of Pittsburgh

University of Pittsburgh The official Facebook account of the University of Pittsburgh. Hail to Pitt! Since 1787, we’ve never stopped pushing the edge of what’s possible.

We were forged in the spirit of progress and the thrill of the unknown. And over 200 years later we’re still driven by the search. By the rush that comes from connecting dots and seeing ideas converge. Then finding more dots. And seeking newer ideas. We thrive in forging new paths to mold better futures, embracing each setback as fuel for something greater. Because at our core, we’re focused on hu

man impact and the relentless pursuit of change, for good. That’s why the goal of our work has always been to keep working. To answer the questions, to question the answers and to never, ever, stop reinventing. Here, progress is always in progress. This is the University of Pittsburgh. Forge Ahead.
