FELLOWSHIPS

The Louisiana Tech Research Institute (LTRI) maintains a close relationship with the military, particularly through its strategic collaborations with the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) and other defense organizations. This connection directly informs the National Security Fellowship (NSF) program, which is designed to develop future leaders equipped to address complex national security challenges.

Through the NSF program, fellows gain exposure to military operations, strategic deterrence concepts, and cutting-edge research initiatives that support national defense priorities. By aligning educational experiences with real-world military needs, LTRI provides fellows with opportunities to engage in projects that contribute to mission-critical goals. This unique relationship fosters an interdisciplinary approach to problem-solving and ensures that NSF fellows are prepared to make meaningful contributions in both civilian and defense sectors.
