About the Institution
Lawrence Technological
University ranks in the top tier of U.S. News & World Report’s America’s 2023 Best Colleges and continues to score high in the
most prestigious categories including being recognized as a “Best Value Schools.” Lawrence Tech was founded as a college of

among Michigan’s largest independent colleges.
In 1950, associate programs were added to Lawrence Tech’s baccalaureate
offerings. In 1952 the College of Business and Information Technology was re-established, having its origins in an earlier industrial
engineering curriculum. Master’s degree programs in management were launched in 1989. The College of Architecture and Design evolved
in 1962 from the former architectural engineering department and in 1993 launched a Master of Architecture program. The College of Arts and
Sciences was established in 1967. Master’s degree programs in engineering were begun in 1990 and in Arts and Sciences in 1997.
Doctoral programs were launched in 2002. In 2011 competitive athletics returned to campus with the University’s entry into the
National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. LTU now supports 26 varsity men’s and women’s teams in baseball, basketball, bowling,
