About Us

Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science is your new resting place. You’ll find your path here through our in-depth courses that will prepare you for a future career in being a caregiver like no other.

WHO YOU ARE

If you’re someone who is ready to break away from the established path of four years in college only to get a job that doesn’t fulfill you, then you’ve found your new home.

Learn Something Every Day

Are you someone who wants a profession in caregiving, but you don’t envision yourself as a healthcare worker or in social work? If you’re nodding your head yes, then the funeral profession could use someone like you.

Our program is designed for those who are ready to absorb extensive knowledge and background to build a future in the global death care community that will make you feel alive. 

"It is impossible for a man to learn what he thinks he already knows."

For over 75 years, our Institute has been educating, training, and preparing those who’ve wanted to pursue a career in the funeral service. Our faculty members each have their own background that provides our students with the skills required of the funeral professional. Our program is beneficial for non-traditional students who are ready to not only find their career but where they belong.
