[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At WM, I would have included Statistics, but not included Physics. UVa's Data Science is odd by excluding CS. UVa should have moved CS there and out of both Engineering and A&S. My guess is that colleges haven't quite figured it all out and that adjustments will come later. [/quote] Statistics is part of the math department so they can't move just that. Physics and CS want to partner on further engineering-lite majors[/quote] It does seem odd to me to break off a separate school and pull just Physics out of Arts & Sciences. I think VT's approach makes more sense -- the major is in College of Science as a major combining Math/Stats + CS from the Engineering school. Most of the tracks within the major incorporate other majors in the College of Science -- biology, physics, economics, geosciences. [/quote]
