| Computer Science at Lewis-Clark State College is designed to
prepare students for industry or graduate work. The required major courses are
characterized by a balance between theory and application. The remainder of the
courses provide three options.
The Computer Science Emphasis is a traditional computer science
curriculum, mathematically rigorous and designed to prepare students for graduate
programs in Computer Science. In addition, the courses contain sufficient
practical projects which prepare students for entry-level programming or software
engineering positions.
The Computer Information Systems (CIS) Emphasis is an
interdisciplinary program combining courses from the Business Division with the
Computer Science core. This program has a broad business emphasis without
sacrificing the computer science. The CIS emphasis is designed to prepare
students for entry-level information systems positions requiring both technical
and organizational expertise. Students are also prepared to enter graduate
programs in Management Information Systems.
The Computer Science Web-based Emphasis combines courses from
the Business, Technology & Service Division's Web Development program with the
CS core creating a program with balanced application and theoretical courses.
This option is designed for CS students who want a strong web-development applied background,
preparing them for industry.
The Computer Science Technology Emphasis combines courses from
the Technical & Industrial Division's Information Systems Analysis program with the
CS core creating a program with balanced application and theoretical courses.
This option is designed for CS students who want a strong networking applied background,
preparing them for industry.
