It's More Than Research
At LSU, Louisiana's flagship institution, the research we perform is not only our duty, it's what drives us. From cancer and diabetes to coastal sustainability, energy, and agriculture, we improve the lives of our neighbors and loved ones every day. In the past year alone, LSU garnered $160 million in research funds, which returned $490 million in economic impact to the state.

That investment launched the Collaboration in Action research program to solve health challenges in critical areas for people in Louisiana, including cardiovascular disease, cancer care, trauma and neuroscience, chronic respiratory disease, medical data science, and sports medicine and performance.
At LSU, education extends far beyond the walls of the classroom. The Lagniappe Internship Fund provides students with extra financial support to take their learning to the next level, bridging the gap between academic knowledge and real-world experience.
