3 major players biology -- Davis area of excellence MPS -- Math/ Physical Sciences Engineering -- CS Mechanical etc. Center -- all in another department Department -- average 50% appts but could be any fraction need for stability As computational science "name" not good can do in existing departments Undergraduate MPS Computing need minor? too much courses! physics chemistry get together to do Bioinformatics exists Experimental Physicists don't take EE Support etc negotiable "cluster" Space central graduate first can wait 3 years technology for large classes Walters has good looking technology like Tango Medical Informatics statistics math CS CE in core bruno in charge IT Well respected by administration Poor Davis to outside world connection need to connection to wonderful wire running a mile away CIPIC Bad name -- change to Center for Data Analysis and Visualization Computer Science worried by current process I was first candidate they talked to claim lots of section of undergraduate courses but make them very hard not optimized for MPS students they offer CS degree in both Engineering and MPS 1/3 core 2/3 others -- 20 (2 * 50% center load) information technology as well as simulation Engineering paid more than science 30% difference at start career
