Civic engagement is embedded in all that we do at Drexel University, including how we teach and learn, conduct business, and support local community partners.

Drexel administrative offices and programs like Human Resources and the Environmental Collaboratory reinforce our university-wide commitment to community partnership.

Drexel collaborates with nonprofit organizations, public and private schools, and local government agencies to provide more than 150 unique civic engagement opportunities for our students every year. We have developed an employee volunteer program that gives all employees 16 paid hours each year to use in service opportunities, either as individuals or as department-wide projects. Our students and faculty are always looking for ways to establish creative collaboration with our campus neighbors.
