Missouri S&T’s Department of Computer Science has a proud 50+ year history of positively impacting society through ground-breaking research and advancing the quality and breadth of its educational mission, granting an ABET-accredited BS, as well as MS and PhD degrees. An active recruitment strategy has resulted in the department now being one of the largest on campus, with over 900 students. Nearly 1000 recruiters sought Computer Science graduates during the last academic year, including multiple national labs with whom we have long-established hiring pipelines as well as funded research collaborations. The department has several successful and engaged alumni and is strongly supported by the Academy of Computer Science, a 40-member organization dedicated to developing key programs of the department with financial support, and active engagement and advocacy.
Missouri S&T is one of the nation’s leading technological research universities with 98 degree programs in 39 disciplines. Located about 100 miles west of St. Louis in the multicultural community of Rolla, Missouri S&T is an accessible, safe, and friendly campus surrounded by Ozarks scenery. Missouri S&T offers degrees in engineering, the sciences, liberal arts, humanities, and business, with master’s and Ph.D. programs available in many of the science and engineering programs and master’s degrees in biological sciences, business administration and technical communication. With about 7,500 students enrolled on campus and online, Missouri S&T is big enough to accommodate a diverse population, yet small enough for individuals to build high visibility and impactful careers.
Missouri S&T’s Department of Computer Science, the campus, and the greater University of Missouri System are deeply committed to the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Missouri S&T has undertaken several initiatives to improve campus life and the work life balance of its faculty and staff (see http://hr.mst.edu). Missouri S&T also seeks to meet the needs of dual-career couples.
