At least with the new version of android studio, there are different "views" of the project. If you look on the left side of the application where your files are, there is a bar with a dropdown. There are a couple of options for viewing the application and I believe that the only view that shows those folders is the "project" view. The "android" view shows the source in a "java" folder, the "packages" view shows folders based on the package structure.

In this last one you can see the src and libs folders.
