Research Rockstars @LehighU
Since 2005, the David and Lorraine Freed Undergraduate Research Symposium has convened the best of the best from across Lehigh's (and Lafayette's) undergraduate engineering labs to celebrate their innovations and discoveries.
This year, the annual UGRS was held at Lehigh's brand new Health, Science and Technology (HST) building on Wednesday, April 12, 2023, from 9am-3pm.
Look back at this year's Undergraduate Research Symposium on social media via the #LehighEngineers hashtag!
