Master of Engineering in Polymer Science and Engineering

Graduate students in Polymer Science and Engineering (PSE) enjoy one of the nation's top-ranked teaching and research programs in PSE in terms of number of students, funding, and significance of its publications. Key features of the graduate program include: Research projects that span chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science and engineering, mechanical engineering, and physics,Strong interaction with industry, including successful alumni,State-of-the-art laboratory facilities.The Center for Polymer Science and Engineer. Lehigh has a diverse group of faculty members with strong, primary interest in polymer science and engineering. In order to provide better opportunities for courses and research in this interdisciplinary field, activities are coordinated through the Center for Polymer Science and Engineering (CPSE), and its academic Polymer Education Committee. Polymer faculty from traditional departments of chemical engineering, chemistry, materials science and engineering, physics, and mechanical engineering and mechanics, are participants of the CPSE.

If you have earned (or will soon earn) a bachelor's degree or a degree in technology at a recognized college, university, or technical institution, you may be admitted as a graduate student and study for an advanced degree. There are three categories of graduate student: regular, associate, and non-degree. Only regular students can earn advanced degrees. Students who do not wish to enter a degree program may seek admission with non-degree status.

To be considered for admission as a regular graduate student, you should apply directly to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. The decision to admit a student rests with the department. An offer of admission stands for one year following the semester for which the offer was made. If more than one year elapses, the department reserves the right to reconsider its offer.
