CEE Research Groups Research Groups Structural Engineering Lehigh's graduate program in structural engineering seeks to develop new ways of designing and building large structures to ensure their safety, reliability and longevity.
Specific attention is given to design innovation, materials, welding and construction.
Research Center are the largest in North America. Hydraulic Engineering Hydraulic engineers seek to control and harness the behavior and power of water. Courses are offered in hydromechanics, fluid mechanics of turbomachinery, flood hydrology and hydraulics, fluid mechanics of the ocean and atmosphere, engineering groundwater hydrology, coastal engineering, surface water hydrology, harbor and coastal engineering design, transport of contaminants in groundwater, marine geology, and hydraulics of sediment transport. The Geotechnical Engineering Program at Lehigh University is an interdisciplinary graduate engineering program. Availability of elective courses in water resources, geology,information technologies, computer science and engineering, mechanics, materials science, chemical engineering, and chemistry greatly strengthen the research capabilities of the geotechnical engineering program.
