Greetings from Dean Napper
Dr. Stan A. Napper |
Welcome to the College of Engineering and Science. At Louisiana Tech, our College is BEST - Building Engineers and Scientists for Tomorrow. If your goal is to become an engineer or a scientist, we have the best programs for achieving that goal. In our College, engineers and scientists work together to design and deliver the courses and curricula in a way that integrates principles and skills from different disciplines. Coupled with our 100 years of experience in teaching undergraduate students with personal involvement and caring from faculty, this integrated approach produces graduates in high demand with versatile problem-solving abilities. New opportunities for studying, and practicing, entrepreneurship provide additional practical business knowledge and a pro-active leadership ability. These educational experiences are available for all of our undergraduate majors, including six | engineering degrees, four science degrees (including computer science), and two engineering technology degrees. We now have a B.S. in Nanosystems Engineering.
Engineers and scientists also work together at Tech to provide doctoral and masters' education in the engineering and science areas. In addition to three PhD degrees - Biomedical engineering, Computational Analysis and Modeling, and Engineering - M.S. degrees are available in all engineering and science areas, plus interdisciplinary degreesin Microsystems Engineering, and Molecular Science and Nanotechnology. Because of our world class faculty members and facilities, especially those in our Research Centers, we offer relevant professional/research experiences to all graduate students and many undergraduate students. the faculty, staff and students are also actively engaged in economic development through generation of new technology and new businesses. Our new Biomedical Engineering Building, to open in 2006, will enable expansion of research in Bionanotechnology, as well as space to "incubate" new businesses.
This interdisciplinary approach to research and education provides Louisiana Tech with a significant competitive advantage in achieving our goals, and your goals, of Building Engineers and Scientists for Tomorrow. I have a personal passion for being the best, and the College of Engineering and Science demonstrates that same passion in all that we do. Please walk through these web pages to learn more, or better yet, walk through our halls and labs to see first-hand how we are doing. You may contact my office at 318-257-4647 or via email at san@latech.edu.
Sincerely,
Stan A. Napper, Ph.D.
