Today marks a historic day for Cornell University, as we announce the creation of the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science, made possible by a generous gift from Ann S. Bowers ’59, an early leader in Silicon Valley, philanthropist and longtime Cornell supporter.
This is a transformational gift that will ensure capacity for CIS to continue its exceptional growth, and to further build its preeminence in the fields of computing, information science, statistics and data science. The gift will also provide support for the construction of a new building that will create much needed space for current and future faculty and students.
