Economics faculty members have won numerous Lehigh University teaching awards. We run a graduate student seminar series that includes invited speakers, advanced graduate students presenting their research, and workshops on presentation and teaching skills. Between five and twelve students enter our graduate program each year. At any given time there are approximately thirty students in residence.
Classes are small and students are able to work closely with faculty.
Students also have the opportunity to take classes in Lehigh s other colleges. For example, the mathematics department offers a two courses in the mathematics of finance and the industrial and manufacturing engineering department teaches operations research, information systems, and artificial intelligence and neural networks. Lehigh University has active graduate programs with over two-thousand students in business and economics, education, engineering, humanities, physical sciences, and social sciences.
