The 2,000 students who study at Lyle are supported by a faculty staff of 80 who are internationally recognized for their expertise and contributions to engineering. The close student-teacher ratio of 11:1 allows for one-to-one advice and accessible support.

Located on the 14^th most beautiful campus in America (Princeton Review), Lyle’s state-of-the-art facilities include specialist research laboratories and advanced teaching spaces. Its subject-specific services provide a practical learning experience which is further enhanced by school events. This includes the regular Willis M.

Additionally, for over ten years, more than 30 percent of enrollments have been female engineers, one of the highest percentages at any school.
