Welcome to the Chemical Engineering Graduate Association (ChEGA) at Lehigh University! We are a community of passionate graduate students committed to supporting one another through our academic and personal journeys!
At ChEGA, we believe that a strong, supportive community is essential to success in graduate school. We provide a range of events and activities that foster engagement, development, and socialization; from academic events (Graduate Symposium, Journal Club) to recreational events (Welcome BBQ, Thanksgiving Potluck), we have something for everyone! We are dedicated to promoting academic integrity, professionalism, collaboration, and respect in everything we do. These values are at the core of our mission, and we strive to embody them in all of our interactions with our peers and faculty/staff of our department.
Whether you’re a new graduate student just starting out, a current graduate student looking for ways to get involved, or a prospective graduate student exploring your options, we welcome you to ChEGA! We invite you to explore our website, connect with us on social media, and get involved in our community. No matter where you are in your graduate journey, we are here to support you and help you achieve your goals. Together, we can create a supportive and vibrant community that helps all of our members thrive!
