About GO: The Campaign for Lehigh

Lehigh has always believed in the importance of preparing people to lead lives of consequence—and in molding leaders unafraid to take on great challenges, solve problems, and move humanity forward. We are steadfast in this belief because we know the nation, and indeed the world, benefits immeasurably from individuals who look out at the unknown and see endless opportunities.

This commitment is more important than ever in today’s era of accelerated change. Students are entering a workforce that will challenge them to thrive in a state of constant disruption. The higher education landscape is shifting rapidly. The institutions that lead tomorrow will be those that take action today.

Lehigh is ready for this moment. We deliver the right kind of education for our times—a distinctive education that teaches students how to learn and apply that learning. We have an intrinsic interdisciplinary mindset perfect for tackling complex challenges. We have research strengths that can help address our world’s toughest challenges. We have big ideas and are already pursuing ambitious goals for the future.

Now, it falls to people like us—Lehigh people—to take action and drive the university forward.

GO: The Campaign for Lehigh, a $1 billion-plus fundraising and engagement effort, calls for investment in the next generation of Lehigh people—tenacious, resilient, and hard-working graduates skilled in leadership and critical thinking.

With top priorities around scholarships, academic and experiential learning programs, and research and distinction across all colleges and disciplines, this campaign will fuel the next great age of Lehigh University. Together, we will ensure Lehigh will continue to deliver a transformational education to the most talented students and drive innovation and research that will change our world.

Let's go!
