LIVING WITH THE LAB
Hands-On Engineering Education
In Louisiana Tech’s first- and second-year engineering program — Living with the Lab — you’ll get immersive, project-focused experience. Through the six semester hour course sequence, you’ll get experiential learning through ownership of the “lab” — a robotics kit, tools, software, and supplies — that provides you a platform for laboratory and design projects. Student ownership of the lab expands the scope and complexity of projects that can be undertaken with large groups and fosters the development of knowledge, skills and confidence that lead to innovation.
The following courses taught are part of Louisiana Tech University’s Living with the Lab curriculum.
