Amazing Work!

Team Blending Fashion and Engineering to Design a High-Tech Exoskeleton for Construction Safety LSU researchers are helping to develop a smart, AI-powered exoskeleton to protect construction workers from strain and injury. Blending engineering with apparel design, the team is creating wearable technology for diverse body types and real-world job demands.

Several of LSU’s TAM Students spent last week in St. Louis, Missouri at the 2025 ITAA Annual Conference. They were able to present their research and meet colleagues from around the world. Way to Geaux!

Our TAM 3045 students are back at it. The newest window displays are up in the Human Ecology building lobby. Be sure to come check them out before they’re gone! (Coming down Tuesday, November 25th.)

Some of our amazing TAM students are enjoying their summer interning with Dillards at the Mall of Louisiana! 🙌🏻
