Welcome to Lehigh's Department of Bioengineering!

At Lehigh, we believe that the greatest potential for innovation occurs at the boundaries between strong disciplines. At the core of Lehigh’s Department of Bioengineering are pillars of recognized strengths in bioscience, systems, mechanics, materials and computer science, and our Department upholds a strong tradition of interdisciplinary thinking as our faculty and students work closely with peers from around the world to develop breakthrough innovations and technologies focused on alleviating problems related to human health.

Our research areas span key areas such as biocomputation and modeling, diagnostics, sensors and devices, and materials and therapies, and the outcomes of our faculty-led efforts are contributing to advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, the development of platforms for the early detection of disease and precision diagnostics, and the design of novel biological pharmaceuticals and nanomedicine, biosensors and medical devices. | MORE >>
