Lehigh University (reviews)

Lehigh offers a great education! Classes can be serious and rigorous, however the town is nice and the school is fun! We have a good atmosphere for learning and recreation too! Business and engineering are particularly strong focuses here

The university is small. Professors are helpful and good but not really great. Lot of clubs and activities everyday. School is around 5000 people. So you mostly come across the same people everyday. Lehigh is research focused. Lot of programs and projects to keep yourself occupied.

A great experience both social and academic life. Well developed institution with good facilities relevant for students in a higher learning institution. The university’s professors are supportive and helpful. The engineering workshops helped us in acquiring hands on experience apart from the theory that was taught in class. The learning environment is generally good even for new students.

The finance and supply chain majors were wonderful because it brought a sense of mentorship throughout the 4 years, specifically on the latter half. I did not like the physical classrooms as they were dated, though they are building a new business school. Student life was awesome, especially the fraternity and sorority influence on campus. I think that was the highlight, but overall there is a sense of comradery throughout the school because we all go to Lehigh. I do not believe it is a super international school, because it sends many kids to NYC, throughout PA, NJ, and the Northeast corridor. Career prospects are stellar here. While it is not a target school for investment banks or top tier consulting firms, I know many people who have gone that route. Furthermore, I know many people who have gotten into places like the Big 4, Mid-Majors, Epic, advancing their degrees at Penn and other institutions, Air Products, and more.
