The college is named after Herbert H. Lehman, who was a New York State governor, a U.S. senator, and an internationalist. His values of dedicated public service continue to guide the college. A senior liberal arts college, Lehman offers more than 90 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, 17 graduate certificates, and 11 doctoral programs in conjunction with the CUNY Graduate Center. It is on a tree-lined 37-acre campus in the northwest Bronx, across from the Jerome Park Reservoir and centered along a major educational corridor with five neighboring public schools, including the High School of American Studies at Lehman College, which has been ranked the No. 1 public high school in New York City and State. In recent years, Lehman College has focused on the growth of its science programs and its faculty research. In FY 2017, the college was awarded $13.2 million from federal, state, city, and private sources in support of faculty and student-led scholarly research. Science Hall, an $89 million state-of-the-art research and teaching facility, opened in 2013 as part of CUNY’s Decade of Science. The largest single capital project in Lehman’s history, Science Hall is the only building in the CUNY system to have achieved LEED Platinum certification. It is the first phase of a three-phase complex that will create a “campus within a campus” devoted to study and research in the sciences. In 2013, a new $7.3 million Child Care Center designed to meet the needs of Lehman’s students opened. A new interactive playground, including an outdoor classroom, was also recently completed. The college has given high priority to expanding its technological infrastructure and the modernization of labs and facilities that have contributed to better use of space for teaching, research, and learning. The college has also completed a $50 million upgrade to its central heating, cooling, and power plant systems, creating a more energy efficient and sustainable campus. During the fall 2016 semester, the new Student Health Center opened, followed by a new Student Wellness Center. In late 2017, the College broke ground on a $10 million upgrade to the Lehman Center for the Performing Arts. Upcoming projects include the new Nursing Education, Research and Practice Center to meet enrollment growth and the high demand for nurses.
