The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science (MCS) provides a comprehensive computer science education.
In 2022, our on-line master’s program in computer science ranked 11th in the country. (Article Link) Students discover courses that combine theoretical computer science foundations with industry-relevant practical knowledge. LTU’s internationally recognized faculty help to guide each student. This personal attention optimizes the learning experience and enhances creativity and complex problem-solving skills.
With a unique approach to computer science education, it’s no wonder that LTU students reach the highest possible levels in their fields. LTU students publish more peer-reviewed scientific papers than most other computer science departments, including leading private and public universities.
In the end, our students begin exciting careers and in fact, in a recent ranking by Yahoo showed LTU’s return on investment to be in the top 5 % of all Colleges and Universities in the USA.
Mission Statement
To cultivate an analytical, quantitative, computational, and interdisciplinary mindset in our students. Faculty are committed to providing students with data-driven skills using mathematical and computational methods that are critical for understanding and solving today’s most challenging problems.
