Give to LSU International Studies

Why Should You Support Us?

There are many teams that win at LSU, but our International Studies Program takes students from Day One as a Tiger and puts them on a path to impact the world.

Our students are among the leaders in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences when it comes to presenting their original research at conferences. In 2026 alone, we recorded 11 presentations at LSU and other universities like Texas A&M and Harvard.

Many of these presentations were at graduate or professional-level meetings like Abigail Williams' (LSU '26) (right) presentation at the American Association of Geographers Conference on Hurricane Strength Predictions.

Lucrezia Tomassetti's (LSU '26) presentation on Gender-based Peace Provisions in Columbia placed first in the Humanities and Social Sciences Division at LSU Discover Day.

Ava Ryder (LSU '26) presented her research on a Bolivian Water Crisis (along with Lucrezia Tomassetti) at the National Undergraduate Research Conference at Harvard.

Lailah Williams (LSU '25) (right) earned recognition in LSU's 2025 Tiger Twelve, identifying her among the top student leaders at LSU in her graduating year.

You have the opportunity to be the next person to support outstanding Tigers like these. As a person who cares about LSU, you deserve the chance to back winners like these.
