Four students with majors in the College of Arts and Sciences are among 42 students who have been selected to join the latest cohort of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management. It is the largest cohort in the history of the Raikes School, which was founded in 1999. 

The Raikes School offers an interdisciplinary education in computing, business and innovation for high-achieving students. The school is committed to creating future leaders for technology-driven industries through opportunities in and outside of the classroom. For the sixth consecutive year, female students make up more than 40% of the new cohort, well above the industry average in computing. 

CAS students: 

  • Ruby Gutzmann, freshman, Mathematics 
  • Shrey Agarwal, junior, Mathematics 
  • Roman Yalamanchili, junior, Mathematics 
  • Kate McKinzie, freshman, Data Science 

“These students are exceptionally talented and bring their own unique story and potential to change the world,” Adam Britten, the school’s director of recruitment and student success, said, “and we look forward to supporting them in their incredible achievements ahead.”
