School mission "At Tech you'll belong. Tech is family." That's how one graduate described the Louisiana Tech experience. With its reputation for offering a private-college atmosphere at a public university price, Tech continues to rise as an excellent value in undergraduate and graduate education. Founded in 1894, this selective admissions university is dedicated to challenging its students through caring faculty who are passionate about their teaching and research. They are also known for their practical experience outside of academia. Software engineers, newspaper editors, published authors, practicing architects and medical doctors all bring their expertise to the classroom to enhance learning.
