The De La Salle University Science and Technology Complex (DLSU-STC) (alternatively called De La Salle University - Canlubang/Biñan/Leandro V. Locsin Campus) is a satellite campus of De La Salle University (DLSU) located in Biñan City, Laguna, Philippines. The 55-hectare campus was built on land donated by the family of the late Philippine National Artist for Architecture Leandro Locsin. It was originally known as De La Salle Canlubang (DLSC), a district school of De La Salle Philippines that provided science and technology-based primary, secondary, and tertiary education. In 2012, the administrations of DLSU and DLSC approved the integration of DLSC to DLSU, becoming the DLSU Science and Technology Complex. DLSU-Manila's Ramon V. del Rosario College of Business also has a satellite graduate school that operates within DLSU-STC offering a Master of Business Administration degree.

The first building to be constructed on campus is the four-storey Milagros V. del Rosario Building, which houses the school's administrative offices and classrooms. The building was donated to the school by Ambassador Ramon V. del Rosario. The building has 35 classrooms, a 200-seat auditorium, three audio-visual rooms, three libraries, a media lab, a dark room for the photography students, a radio station, a children's playroom, a robotics classroom, and three computer laboratories. Construction began in April 2002 and was completed in June 2003 and was designed by the firm L.V. Locsin and Partners.

Beginning construction on August 2005, the Integrated School (IS) building finished right on time for the next school year on March 2006. The IS Building houses the classrooms and other spaces for the Nursery to Grade 3 students of the Integrated School. The building also houses a canteen of its own and it stands beside the Pergola.

The Pergola is a multi-purpose hall for the students. It stands beside the new Integrated School Building. The covered area acts as a special venue with several functions for the different activities of the Academic Community.
