Program Director: Thomas Gallagher
Planning and managing an organization’s IT infrastructure is a difficult and complex job that requires a solid foundation in applied computing as well as management and people skills. IT professionals possess the right combination of knowledge and practical, hands-on expertise to take care of both an organization’s information technology infrastructure and the people who use it (ACM, Computing Careers). Missoula College offers a variety of Information Technology programs of study in Network Administration & Security, Programming & App Development, Computer Support, Health Care Informatics, and Network Information Security
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) Degree Programs
Certificate of Applied Science (CAS) Programs
Professional Certificates
Baccalaureate pathways are specific plans of study designed to help students earn a two-year degree while simultaneously working towards UM baccalaureate degree requirements. Faculty from the Department of Applied Computing & Engineering have worked to develop several pathways with faculty at four-year programs of study to develop opportunities for two-year college students to continue their studies in pursuing the baccalaureate degree.
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) Degree Programs
Due to limited resources, many courses for the Energy Technology and the Electronics Technology Programs are NOT being offered. These degree programs are currently undergoing revisions.
Questions regarding these programs should be directed to Dr. Steve Shen
