College Scorecard reports school-wide earnings and price, not per-major outcomes for individual colleges. Program share is a concentration signal, not a promise of department quality. Use it as a proxy, then verify department-level outcomes with the school.
Value among peer schools
Compared with 141 schools that report this field.
This page treats cost and earnings as school-wide context, not department-level outcomes. The reported share is 2.0x the national average concentration; the school-wide net price is higher than the peer average ($16,943 above), and ten-year median earnings are higher than the peer average ($35,038 above). That combination produces a C value grade and a top 74% ROI position within this field set.

How big is the program signal?
Environmental/Environmental Health Engineering accounts for 1% of reported programs at Lehigh University, which is bigger than 89% of schools in this field set and 2.0x the national average concentration. The enrollment proxy is about 60 students when that share is applied to current enrollment.
How should I read the cost number?
Lehigh University's average net price is $36,931 per year, about $147,724 over four years. That is $16,943 above the $19,988 peer average, before your own aid package changes the final bill.
Are the earnings major-specific?
No. The $105,584 median earnings figure is school-wide ten years after entry. It is $35,038 above the $70,546 average among schools reporting this field, so treat it as an outcomes proxy rather than a department guarantee.
What should I compare next?
Start with program share, net price after aid, graduation rate, location, and whether the department publishes placement or licensure outcomes. EduGradify ranks Lehigh University #104 of 141 schools in this field set by school-wide ROI proxy.
