College Highlights
At LTU, students don’t just study science and technology—they live it. From their first semester, undergraduates are immersed in experiential learning that’s woven into every major.

Biology majors conduct original research alongside faculty mentors. Computer science students build software and compete in hackathons that simulate real-world tech challenges.
Capstone projects, cooperative education placements, and faculty-guided research allow students to apply what they’ve learned to industry-relevant problems—often in partnership with companies across the Detroit metro region.
