"Academically, Lehigh was terrific. For example, in my electrical engineering classes, we always worked in small groups—which was an unusual education practice back in the early 1980s—but it simulated quite well how things would work in the real world once I graduated."

Great talents and bright minds flourish at Lehigh, as highlighted by the accomplishments of our alumni.

The P.C. Rossin College of Engineering & Applied Science is endowed with rich traditions of engineering excellence, and is blessed by many generations of alumni who distinguish themselves not only as engineers, but as entrepreneurs, business leaders, attorneys, physicians, and policy makers. A sampling of our distinguished alumni demonstrates the many paths that Lehigh engineering graduates have followed, including, Lee Iacocca of Chrysler, Peter Rossin, entrepreneur and founder of Dynamet, Inc., James W. Packard of Packard Automobiles, Dr. Anthony Collins, President of Clarkson University, NASA astronaut (and current Lehigh adjunct professor) Dr. Terry Hart, and Jesse Reno, inventor of the escalator.

Lehigh engineers are well-rounded analytical problem-solvers – innovators well-equipped to succeed among the rigors and advances of modern science and technology in an increasingly global and diverse workplace. Some pursue engineering directly, others find novel ways to apply their skills in other fields.

Lehigh is committed to producing the most talented engineering innovators and providing multidisciplinary leaders and thinkers with the tools to apply “engineering thinking” to  any pursuit -- and our alumni are the living embodiment of this vision.
