Every semester our faculty invite a variety of academic and industry partners to campus to visit with students/faculty, provide a lecture on their research/area of specialization, and visit our beautiful Lehigh University campus. This is an opportunity for students to learn more about the field of bioengineering, see how bioengineering is applied in different specializations, and to network with those who they might not have been able to meet with before.
Attendance is required for all graduate students. If unable to attend, please contact the graduate coordinator explaining the situation.
