Lehigh’s reputation for engineering distinction can be clearly traced to the excellence of its graduate research and doctoral programs. Graduates from these programs achieve recognition in both industry and academia.

For serious engineering graduate students, Lehigh offers the best of all possible worlds…

…facilities and research centers that rival those of a large school, and the small-school benefit of close collaboration with faculty members who are leaders in their fields.

…the idyllic setting of a campus nestled into a small community, within easy driving distance of major East Coast attractions and metropolitan areas such as Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C.

In engineering research and graduate studies, Lehigh offers some of the most competitive and highly regarded programs in the nation. Almost all graduate programs in engineering are ranked among the first quartile in their discipline by the National Research Council and the U.S. News and World Report. Lehigh has a long standing reputation in areas such as advanced materials, structural engineering, surface chemistry, and logistics, and fast growing reputation in emerging areas such as optical technology, bioengineering, nanotechnology, communications, and high-performance computing.
