Louisiana Tech University College of Engineering and Science
Nethken Hall is the home of Louisiana Tech's electrical engineering and computer science programs. The building is located on Arizona Avenue a few hundred feet from Bogard Hall. When construction was completed in 1967, the building was simply named the Electrical Engineering Building. In 1970, it was renamed in honor of Harley J. Nethken, a former Tech professor, electrical engineering department head, and Acting Dean of the School of Engineering at Tech from 1942 to 1946.
