At Drexel, academics and cooperative education go hand-in-hand. Co-op is a pathway to success that sets a Drexel education apart from other universities, allowing students to learn alongside experts in the field and carry what they learn back to the classroom. This model allows students to gain a unique combination of knowledge and experience that will empower them to become the leaders of today and tomorrow.
A major resource that assists in the co-op process is the Steinbright Career Development Center. As one of the largest collegiate teams of co-op and career services, Steinbright also provides career counselors who will assist in all aspects of career development, advanced methods of interviewing skills, professional networking, and more. Upon graduation, you’ll have a full résumé with a variety of experience and have developed your own vast network of professionals around the world.
