Campus Social Impact Fellows are a cohort of undergraduate and graduate students who address challenges related to the UN Sustainable Development Goals on Lehigh's campus. CSIFs advance their projects in the Spring and Fall semesters and have the option of working on their project in the summer at Mountaintop. The courses, workshops, retreats, and immersive experiences of this program integrate experiential learning, research, and entrepreneurial engagement with students leading original and ambitious projects with partners on campus and across the region. Projects are mentored by Lehigh faculty with students making substantial intellectual contributions along the way.
