Cornell University has recognized that computing and information science has emerged as a key enabling discipline vital to nearly all of its scholarly and scientific pursuits. It has recognized the need for new programs of study in this field that span the campus. It has recognized the imperative that Cornell remain at the forefront in creating basic computer science and applying it to meeting human needs.

The Faculty of Computing and Information is founded on the recognition that the ideas and technology of computing and information science are relevant to every academic discipline. We are united in the need to bring together a core of faculty in this field from across the traditional colleges who will collectively advance Cornell's programs of teaching and research in computing and information.
