At Drexel Engineering, we believe that diversity, equity and inclusion are
essential for excellence in engineering education and innovation. Our
mission is to cultivate inclusive mindsets, behaviors and structures to
create a culture of belonging where all identities, talents and perspectives
are recognized, valued and celebrated.
Our vision is for every member of the Drexel Engineering community to have
the opportunity to achieve their academic and professional goals and
innovate in an environment where they feel respected and that they belong,
regardless of background. We have student organizations and
programs dedicated to supporting traditionally underrepresented students and
promoting cross-cultural understanding.
Drexel Engineering has a longstanding commitment to diversity, equity, and
inclusion. Through a plethora of outreach programs, discussions, and
experiences, we provide the foundational framework to support our
historically marginalized communities. However, we recognize there is still
work to be done. Our recruitment strategies must be redefined to include
students, faculty, and staff from various backgrounds, disciplines, and
perspectives.
We embrace and celebrate diversity in all its forms at Drexel Engineering,
including race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, beliefs, abilities and
perspectives. We also dedicate ourselves to addressing inequities in our
campus and community through initiatives focused on social justice, access
and inclusive excellence.
We invite you to explore our website to learn about our DEI strategic plan,
student organizations, programs, training opportunities and resources. We
believe our greatest innovations and solutions come from bringing together
people with a variety of backgrounds, talents and ideas. Together, we can
create positive change within Drexel Engineering and beyond.
