Sports
From StudentOrganization
At Carnegie Mellon in Qatar, we have various different initiatives in athletics in which students can participate. Generally speaking, we have two ways for students to get involved:
- official sports teams who are a part of an Education City-wide league made from the other branch campuses and sometimes a few local high schools
- "intramural" sports gatherings of faculty, staff, and students from CMUQ and other branch campuses at a designated time each week
