The School of Computer, Data and Information Sciences draws from the Departments of Computer Sciences, Statistics, and the Information School and is centered within the College of Letters & Science.
CDIS pairs in-depth learning of technical concepts and advanced analytical techniques with liberal arts coursework that covers the arts and humanities, social sciences, and natural and physical sciences. Interdisciplinary programs will be developed with other departments within and beyond the College of Letters & Science, such as psychology, journalism and mass communication, biology, crop sciences, medicine, and engineering. Learning across disciplines will enable students to better understand the world around them and develop the skills needed to address the myriad challenges computing and big data have created, including those in privacy, ethics, security, and more.
