International Affairs

Welcome to the Tech Family!

As an international student at Louisiana Tech University, you will be welcomed into a supportive community where the Office of International Affairs will strive to help you succeed. At many universities, it is impossible to find the individual attention that our students experience, but at Louisiana Tech, we know how important it is to feel welcomed and know that people are here to help you reach your goals.

 

Our Mission

The Office of International Affairs empowers internationals to realize their goals academically, socially, and professionally. The OIA promotes a global community on campus unifying all nationalities. While increasing efforts to grow the international presence at Louisiana Tech University, the OIA remains committed to providing individual attention to all past, present, and future Louisiana Tech students and staff seeking our services. The office is determined to exceed the expectations of international students and scholars through exemplary immigration counseling, admissions guidance, and customer service.

Ambassadors

"Hello, I am Leance KININGU, an international student from Congo- Kinshasa. Some of the things I like about Louisiana Tech are their diversity in programs and different fun events like the international scholarship dinner. One of my hobbies is dancing and getting to know people.  My favorite thing about the city of Ruston is the community you find here. I can assure you that you’re not just a number and that everyone gets a chance to make good friends and belong. For questions, contact me on WhatsApp: +1 (318) 690-9230 or email me at lki009@latech.edu."

"Hi everyone! I’m Sajeivan, a graduate student in Engineering and Technology Management here at Louisiana Tech University. I earned my undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering at Louisiana Tech, and during that time, I was fortunate to intern and work for a company headquartered on campus. One of the things I love most about Louisiana Tech is how many opportunities it offers — whether you’re pursuing a career in STEAM fields or exploring non-STEAM paths, there’s always room to grow, learn, and connect. As an Ambassador, I’m excited to share my journey and help other students make the most of their time here. Feel free to email or chat on WhatsApp: +1 (318) 497-9028 if you have any questions or would like to chat about Louisiana Tech!"
