Technology is an integral part of people's daily lives—both at home and at work. Muhlenberg College's Computer Science program combines theory and practice to provide students with the foundation and experience essential to work in a variety of technology-driven fields. They learn the principles and foundation of computational methods—including their implementation and analyses—for application in a wide-range of industries.

Muhlenberg College's expert faculty are passionate teachers and mentors who work closely with students both in class and beyond. Students find a collaborative department with hands-on learning and group projects that foster the kind of teamwork essential in computer science and in high demand from employers.

Muhlenberg College's  newly upgraded computer class environments include state-of-the-art workstations, individual workstation servers, projection systems and more. These labs have the Appstream Virtual Lab integrated with Google Drive, providing access to files from any application. Programs such as Python, Anaconda, IDLE, and Maple are available for use at any time. The Office of Information Technology maintains a campus-wide computing network that includes 16 computer labs in both academic and residential buildings, and five special purpose labs—providing access to specialized software.
