Informatics for me was the intersections of CSE (computer science and engineering) and HCI (Human computer Interaction) with a little bit of philosophy and ethics thrown in to broaden one’s prospectives.

The most recent Informatics cohort put has put a YouTube to try and explain the major to prospective students:

Brian Reyes, one of the grads talking in the video, did a great Drupal site for WSBA last year it is the ATJWeb.org site. Pass it on to your friends who might be interested in applying to Informatics! The application date is coming up on April 15. And of course, feel free to post it on your social networking pages, etc. (I need to talk to them about putting the video under CC). For more information about Informatics check out the Ischool website.
