Louisiana Tech University

Office of the President

Welcome to Louisiana Tech University

Since the state legislature established our University in 1894, the students, staff, and faculty of Louisiana Tech have built a rich heritage of academic excellence and a strong tradition of research and public service.

From our campus here in Ruston, our impact can be felt around the world through programs ranging from nanosystems engineering to the performing arts, from forestry to finance, and from education to intercollegiate athletics.

Louisiana Tech University is a reflection of people: those whose vision forges a path to excellence, those who open doors of opportunity for the bright young minds of our nation and world, and those who dedicate their lives to teaching, research, and discovery.

I would like to invite you to learn more about our institution and to experience the very special place that is Louisiana Tech University.

Sincerely,
Daniel D. Reneau
President
