Welcome to the Lehigh University's Integrated Product Development (IPD) program

So, what is IPD?

It is a set of courses that allows students from any college at Lehigh to work with students from other disciplines on a real-world industry sponsored project. Each project team has a faculty adviser and together with an industry mentor, the team follows a proven process that identifies a problem, formulates it into a business opportunity, encourages wild ideas to generate innovative solutions, provides the resources to fabricate, build and test the best solution for technical, social, economic and personal relevance and value. Undergraduates can spend two or three semesters on this project and this experience can be continued into a Master of Engineering in IPD.
