Summary/Abstract: In the focus of this paper is the development of informatics and computer science from the time of putting the first electronic computer to work in Montenegro in 1970, up to the very end of communist rule. In this period Montenegrin authorities aspired to increase the number of computers, build the computer network and develop computer literacy, particularly among pupils and students. Educational institutions attempted, in agreement with government and industry representatives, to establish computer cabinets in schools and universities. Special commission was formed, that dealt with the implementation of the elaborate “Computers in the education of the SR Montenegro“. In high schools and universities were formed departments and sections for training professional staff in these areas and seminars were organised for teachers’ training in informatics and computer science. The paper points to the introduction of computers in the economy organisations, development of the Computer Centar at the University, and the opening of the first labor organisation for the installation of the computer equipment in Montenegro.
