Tim McJilton, Physics '11
“I have been very blessed with my Co-op experiences. I got to work for a research-oriented plasma physics laboratory in Princeton, big name defense contractor Lockheed Martin, and Intel. Drexel prepared me for professional interviews, teaching me about the process and how to stay calm.”

"The co-op experience is definitely one of the more unique aspects of Drexel; not only has it allowed me to gain valuable work and research experience, but it has also exposed me to fields of my own interest. The openness of the physics department has also made my experience at Drexel so far a positive one. The accessibility and receptive attitude of the professors toward undergraduates was indeed one of the reasons I came to Drexel."

“The physics department has first class professors and interesting courses, but it is the opportunities to get involved in research that set Drexel apart. It is hard to know if a major, or even a research field, is really the right path without sitting in the laboratory and doing the work. Drexel offers the opportunity to get involved and actually explore your degree.”

Amanda White, Physics '11
"As part of the interacting galaxy research project, I was able to use the 2.1 meter telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory... Traveling to the observatory was a great experience that really helped me to decide to pursue astronomy professionally. The research I have done with the Drexel Astrophysics Group has also allowed me to reach national distinction. In 2010, I received a Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship."
