Student Voices: Why CU?

Emelia Mantz, BS Student

"Information science is a unique blend of data, design, and communication that offers so many career avenues for students to explore. You want to analyze data? Design an app or website? Be a data journalist? You’re in the right place. What really sets it apart, though, is its close-knit community. Professors know you by name and support your individual growth. This balance is what makes me so happy to call Information Science my major."
