About Lawrence Technological University

On LTU’s Southfield campus, students learn with technology, project-based coursework, and facilities connected to fields such as engineering, advanced manufacturing, data, design, and health sciences. Campus life includes four housing units, more than 100 student organizations, athletics, tours, and events. The Detroit Institute of Arts’ Inside|Out program has also brought large-scale reproductions of artworks to campus. The university’s address is 21000 West Ten Mile Road, Southfield, Michigan.

Lawrence Technological University began in 1932, when Henry and Edsel Ford helped launch the school by providing guidance and space in a former Model T assembly plant. Its approach connects theory and practice, taking abstract ideas into real-world problem solving. The university’s five colleges provide programs in architecture and design, arts and sciences, business and IT, engineering, and health sciences. Offerings include certificates, undergraduate and graduate degrees, integrated bachelor’s and master’s programs, and doctoral study. Health sciences programs include Nursing, Physician Assistant studies, and Cardiovascular Perfusion.

International students use the same application as U.S. students. LTU offers online and campus-based study through Specs@LTU, with media programs that combine current technology, hands-on experience, specialized equipment, and project work. Across the university, students can pursue small classes, faculty mentoring, internships, co-ops, and research opportunities. Programs in data and intelligent systems, advanced manufacturing, engineering, business analytics, information technology, and healthcare connect study with changing professional needs.
