Students in the Computer Science program at Louisiana Tech learn algorithm design, programming techniques, and state-of-the-art concepts in computer systems. The curriculum is designed to meet three objectives:

1. A general education in mathematics, science, and the humanities, 
2. An in-depth study of computer systems, including the practical and theoretical aspects of the hardware (equipment) and software (procedures) of these systems, and 
3. An opportunity to prepare for graduate studies or a challenging position in industry in an ever-changing technical discipline.
