Hi everyone! Does anyone know anything about the Data Science major at UCI?

UCI is one of the only schools that offers a specific major for data science. I was wondering how different it is from a typical statistics/computer science track. Would it be worth it to choose Data Science at UCI over Statistics and/or Computer Science at a higher ranked school like UC Berkeley?

Lot of other colleges already started offering data science major in undergrad. My D will be attending U Michigan as freshman 2017. She is considering it. I think there will very job outlook for it. I do not know much about UCI.
Good luck !!

Big Data is widely regarded as the next big thing, so a Data Science degree should be a very marketable credential. Good luck!
