Lehigh has internationally recognized graduate research and education programs in Structural Engineering. Graduates of these programs have the knowledge and analytical problem-solving capabilities to lead and innovate within multi-disciplinary teams for technologically complex environments such as large structural systems of the civil infrastructure. Sponsored research is conducted in the following areas: Advanced Structural Materials and Systems, Earthquake Resistant Structures, Infrastructure Hazard Mitigation, Intelligent Infrastructure Systems, Simulation, Measurement and Evaluation of New and In-service Structures, and Infrastructure Reliability, Maintenance and Life-Cycle Performance. Lehigh students work in structural testing facilities that are among the largest in North America, enabling research in earthquake engineering, fiber-reinforced composites, fatigue and fracture, development of smart structures, shipbuilding, and life-cycle engineering. Our Advanced Technology for Large Structural Systems (ATLSS) Engineering Research Center is home to the largest three-dimensional test bed in the U.S. ATLSS also features a real-time, multi-dimensional earthquake testing facility and conducts seismic research as part of the George E. Brown, Jr. Network Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES) Program. Other specialized facilities, such the 5-million-pound universal hydraulic testing machine in Fritz Laboratory, round out Lehigh's unique research capabilities in structural engineering.
