The College of Computing, Data Science, and Society (CDSS) has been established and three undergraduate majors have transferred from the College of Letters & Science (L&S) to CDSS.
These undergraduate programs are:
- Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science
- Bachelor of Arts in Data Science
- Bachelor of Arts in Statistics
The transfer of these programs from L&S into CDSS is fostering a shared student, staff, and faculty community. It also enables better coordination between academic support, advising, co-curricular programs, career advising, and internship placement across CDSS undergraduate majors.
UC Berkeley is in the process of updating student information systems to reflect the transfer. The guiding principles for decision-making include: student experience (easy for students to navigate), equity and inclusion, and using resources to effectively meet student needs.
During this transition period (academic year 2023-2024):
- Continue on your intended/declared major pathway as it exists today.
- Work with L&S advisors on questions pertaining to college policies and requirements.
Below you will find answers to questions that you may have about the transfer.
