History
Lauan opened its doors in 1972 as a Study Center and Residence hall and moved to its present site at Loyola Heights in 1987. For more than 30 years, Lauan has been a venue for professional development. It helps university students acquire the holistic formation they need to excel in their professions and become men of service to society. The spiritual formation is entrusted to Opus Dei, a personal prelature of the Roman Catholic Church.
