co-op

August 17, 2016

The four-year co-op program officially begins in 1919 in the College of Engineering. Within 10 years, Drexel had established co-ops with Honeywell, Bell, RCA, Bethlehem Steel, Link Belt, General Electric and Westinghouse. Today, students across 75 disciplines participate in the Drexel Co-op Program. This past year, over 5,800 students — and about 91 percent of Drexel’s undergraduate population — participated in co-op in the United States and in 45 countries.
