Facilities

In March 2022, LSU launched a strategy to boost its cybersecurity and military studies programs, including creating a Cyber-Military Corridor on its Baton Rouge campus. The corridor, centered on the Louisiana Emerging Technology Center and adjacent to the Center for Computation & Technology, will foster collaboration between cyber experts, military, ROTC, and agriculture programs. LSU will also hire faculty, offer scholarships, and improve ROTC facilities to strengthen education, training, and leadership development, positioning LSU as a leader in defense education and research.

Improvements to ROTC program facilities include:

• Relocating the program to an existing state-of-the-art building with plans to improve and better integrate efforts across campuses and disciplines
• Improving all elements of education and training from classrooms, to training laboratories to the physical fitness infrastructure
