At Drexel University, learning expands beyond the classroom. And our dynamic cooperative education program, also known as co-op, provides students with opportunities to gain up to 18 months of real-world work experience long before graduation. When students return to the classroom, they will find their experience will not only enhance their own learning but that they are equipped to serve as a valuable resource to other students around them as they share their new insights that can't be found in any textbook. The majority of these positions are full-time and paid, and those that are carry a median six-month salary of over $22,000. In 2019, we were proud to have celebrated 100 years of cooperative education. See where Drexel Co-op can take you.
Since 1891, Drexel has offered academic experiences to its students that prepare them for the future. Drexel is known for a different approach to learning, and our traditional study and learning spaces are made for today's college student.
Although Drexel is a city school, we offer more than just your typical clubs and sports. Warm up your light saber and get in on a Jedi battle, join a tight-knit sorority or fraternity, become a radio personality, or start a game of beach volleyball. Drexel is yours to explore with numerous possibilities.
Drexel is different because the experience you’ll gain as a student here is atypical. No matter your academic interests, out-of-the-classroom hands-on learning opportunities are abundant. With incubators for entrepreneurship, space for product design, and more, our students are encouraged to exercise their full potential.
Drexel is a major research institution featuring a wide variety of cutting-edge labs and research facilities. Students involved in the sciences, engineering, business, and other disciplines across the University work together in these spaces to solve problems, innovate, and push our world forward.
While academics and co-ops are a big part of Drexel, the time spent with friends around campus are just as important. In addition to 9 residence halls on two campuses, Drexel has plenty of places that are well-known for hanging out with your fellow classmates, where you can study or just take a break and relax.
