Bozeman, Montana is a center of Rocky Mountain year-round outdoor recreation and education, and is also home to a growing high technology business community. The Bridger, Gallatin, and Tobacco Root mountains surround the community on three sides, just 90 miles north of Yellowstone National Park.
Montana State University, founded in 1893, boasts a student body of approximately 12,000 and first-class educational opportunities in biotechnology, biochemistry and molecular biology. This high quality institution and Bozeman’s resort community ambiance combine to attract a young and extraordinarily well-educated population. Seventy-four percent of the community's 41,000 residents have some post-secondary education. Bozeman even excels at the high school level, with a recent poll from Newsweek placing Bozeman High School in the top 400 high schools in the country. University graduates, along with industry-experienced newcomers seeking a higher quality of life, provide a brain pool for the area's mix of expanding businesses.
Because of its access to some of the best ski mountains in the United States, SKI Magazine has ranked Bozeman as the #4 ski town in the country. In addition, Outside Magazine has ranked Bozeman as the 5th best college town in the United States, and ranks the city 15th in the United States for access to outside sports. This active outdoor lifestyle is coupled with a strong work ethic that has enabled Bozeman to rank number one as a business climate among cities under 100,000 in the United States, by American City Business Journals.
The “work hard, play hard” mentality helps keep LigoCyte among the most desirable employers in Montana and the region. |
