Back to its origin
Lehigh University is a private，
co-educational university located in Bethlehem， Pennsylvania， in the Lehigh Valley region of the United States. It was established in 1865 by Asa Packer as a four-year technical school， but has grown to include studies in a wide variety of disciplines. Four colleges within Lehigh offer numerous undergraduate and graduate majors. Unlike other engineering schools of the day， Lehigh was envisioned as a university instead of an "institute of technology，" offering an education that was rooted in both scientific and classical traditions. Initially there were f ive schools： four scientific (civil engineering， mechanical engineering， mining and metallurgy， and analytical chemistry) and one of general literature. Lehigh has a student-to-faculty ratio of 10：1. Lehigh"s main campus is located on the wooded slope of South Mountain， and half of the campus is preserved as open space.

中文概述
里海大学（也常被译为"理海大学"和"利哈伊大学"）该校由实业家艾萨·帕克建于1865年，后来发展成一个以工程科学闻名的综合性大学。
里海大学设有文理学院、工程应用科学学院、商学院和教育学院。后来发展成一个以工程科学闻名的综合性大学。自创建以来，学校一直以工科为重点，其工程学在全国素享声誉，至今学校仍有总数一半的学生主修工程科。学校不但配有先进的硬件设施，而且汇集了许多知名学者，极大地增强了工科的科研实力。
近年来学校的商学院迅速发展，已经成为美国最为著名的商学院之一，以会计，财务与经济课程最好。其他学科如建筑学、心理学、政治学、新闻学也值得赞扬。理科以化学和数学较为突出。另外学校的文理学院和教育学院在美国学术界也享有很高的声誉。
里海大学的口号是"努力学习，尽情嬉戏"，在跨进大学的门槛之后，学习压力一般较为沉重，当然这也是几乎所有以工科为主的大学共同的特色。
里海大学依山而建，风景优美。大部分宿舍都建在山坡上。学生们开玩笑地说，在里海读书，无须特意锻炼身体。每天来往于宿舍与教室之间，便是最好的运动。
