Challenges to Economic GrowthLouisiana ranks 33rd in high tech businesses
Louisiana ranks 36th in IT employment
Louisiana ranks 42nd in IT wages
Louisiana ranks 42nd in tech-intensive business formations
No Louisiana SMSA ranked among top 30 in employment growth in “highly innovative” jobs
Louisiana’s economy is still largely based on natural resources, geographic location, and cheap labor
Vision 2020 Goals
“an economy driven by a diverse and thriving set of technology-intensive industries that utilize Louisiana’s colleges and universities as:
• a source of well-educated graduates as employees,• a source of expertise for problem-solving, and• a source of technology for commercialization.”

Education Theme
Provide the current generation of Louisiana students with the skills required to succeed in an increasingly information-rich and information-driven business environment
Ourso Success StoriesCollege produces nearly 26% of all undergraduate diplomas although accounts for only 15% of University enrollmentsISDS baccalaureate degrees awarded up 535% since 1995Over 200+ different companies hired Ourso graduates in 2000-2001Placement in top tier high-tech/IT companies nationwide at very competitive salaries
