Computer Science

The Computer Science and Software Engineering degrees are both housed under the Computer Science Department.

The Computer Science Department at Montana Tech of the University of Montana seeks to teach students the practical techniques of computer programming, networking, data base management, and large scale software development as well as the mathematical and theoretical foundations of problem solving with computer assistance. The Computer Science Degree is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) Computing Accreditation Committee. The Software Engineering Degree is positioned to be accredited in the Fall Semester of 2008 by ABET Engineering Accreditation Committee.

In addition to serving the students majoring in computer science or software engineering, the department also provides instruction and laboratory experience to students from most other majors on campus. Enrollments in the upper division courses average approximately 10 students, allowing significant interaction with faculty. Lower division course enrollments may be larger, reflecting the service nature of these courses.

The Computer Science Department has the following program objectives: to prepare computer science majors for graduate study in computer science; to prepare students with an education that balances the theory and practical aspects of the discipline; and to provide instruction in the basic uses of the computer for all students on campus who have a need or interest in such applications.
