Research Rockstars @LehighU
Since 2005, the David and Lorraine Freed Undergraduate Research Symposium has convened the best of the best from across Lehigh's undergraduate engineering labs to celebrate their innovations and discoveries.
This year, the annual UGRS was held at Lehigh's STEPS building on Friday, April 19, 2024.
Look back at this year's Undergraduate Research Symposium on social media via the #LehighEngineers hashtag!
Thank you to everyone who attended the 2024 Undergraduate Research Symposium! Students from Lehigh University presented their research projects on Friday, April 19, 2024, at Lehigh's STEPS Building.
Also, a big thank you also to all of our participants, judges and everyone who helped make the day a success. Congratulations to this year's winners!
