Welcome

The mission of the School of Informatics is to provide an academic path for students who are interested in pursuing a career that combines computing and information technology with another academic discipline. The curriculum is inherently interdisciplinary, and recognizes that the human, information and technology dimensions of problem solving are equal contributors in advanced informatics applications areas.

The School of Informatics will produce graduates that become successful and internationally competitive educators, entrepreneurs, innovators and leaders in the global information economy.

Graduates from the School of Informatics will possess the skills to apply information technology deeply and effectively in related disciplines, referred to as "cognate" areas. These graduates will be ideally suited to achieve profound advances in these cognate areas. They will also possess general knowledge in the discipline of informatics, which will enable them with the principles and conceptual framework necessary to invigorate any discipline using advanced information technology.
