Faculty & Programs

Lehigh Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) is excited to announce that we have recently revamped our Ph.D. Program for the modern doctoral student.  The plan, unanimously approved by the faculty, includes streamlined sets of requirements and milestones so that students are acquiring foundational skills and conducting cutting-edge research as efficiently as possible.

In the newly revised program, all first-semester students take the program’s three core courses:

Lehigh MEM professor and former NASA astronaut weighs in on Artemis program and what it will take to prepare for a manned mission to Mars

On October 5, Professor Dan M. Frangopol will give the Kececioglu Memorial Lecture hosted by the Department of Aerospace & Mechanical Engineering at the University of Arizona (UA). 

Interdisciplinary team seeks to "leverage microgravity conditions to advance fundamental understanding of the movement of particles through liquids and gels."

IEEE Fellow Chengshan Xiao, Chandler Weaver Professor and Chair of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Lehigh University, has been elected as the Vice President for Conferences of the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc). 

There's no question, says computer science and engineering professor Daniel P. Lopresti: "AI is going to change the vast majority of jobs across the entire landscape.” 

Professor Ricardo H.R. Castro, chair of Lehigh’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering, will teach a short course on the sintering of ceramics, offered by the American Ceramic Society in mid-September.
