The Graduate Certificate in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Lehigh University is a 12-credit program designed for working professionals and graduate students seeking advanced technical competency. Administered by the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science, the program focuses on the application of chemical principles to large-scale industrial and biological systems.
This certificate bridges the gap between laboratory science and industrial-scale production. While a chemistry degree focuses on molecular interactions, this program emphasizes process engineering—how to safely and efficiently move those interactions into mass production.
The curriculum is particularly relevant for those in the Mid-Atlantic region’s pharmaceutical and specialty chemical corridors, providing the credentialing needed to move from a lab-bench role into process design or technical management.
