I am looking out my window at a new Computing and Information Science building

and they merged the Computer Science, Information Science and Data Science programs into one big department that enrolls 2000+ students

So it is definitely something a lot of people are going into and a person who doesn't want to face a bubble pop might consider something else. One good thing at Cornell is that we have a data science minor that anybody can take. I went to a talk by an English professor for instance who applies quantitative methods and data visualization to literary criticism.
