<p>Does Cornell have a Financial Engineering major? I've been poking around the site, but I have not yet been able to find anything of that nature within the Engineering department. Thanks!</p>
<p>Operations Research and Information Engineering.</p>

<p>first, it's called Operations Research and Industrial Engineering.
second, look up OR or IE on wikipedia or something.</p>
<p>If you're considering studying it for 4 years then you should at least have a basic idea of the subject/what it entails.</p>
<p>I'm an idiot for looking at this site....</p>
<p>Don't need your commentary, but thanks.</p>
<p>No, they changed the name to Information Engineering this year. If you looked at the site (<a href="http://www.orie.cornell.edu%5B/url%5D">www.orie.cornell.edu</a>) you'd know that.</p>
<p>These fields historically are NOT exactly the same thing, and the degree to which they are comingled at this school bears further investigation if you care.</p>
<p>For some background, this thread might be helpful.
