majoring in informatics (info sci/tech)?

can someone tell me about majoring in informatics? what is it exactly and what kind of careers are there for it? is it a good major or is it useless? should i get a masters after my bs? i am a first year in college and am seriously thinking about majoring in something that has to do with computers. informatics seems interesting.

I get 60k a year being a sysadmin. Hardly a loser wage that.
College is over rated. Do let school get in the way of your education.
