Postdoc Community
The Office of Postdoctoral Affairs works with both the Drexel Postdoctoral Association and the National Postdoctoral Association to ensure that our postdocs have access to a complete network and community.
NPA
Drexel University is a Sustaining Member of the National Postdoctoral Association (NPA). Therefore, our postdocs receive free Affiliate Membership. By becoming a member, you will get opportunities to network with individuals in the postdoc community and gain access to members-only resources, such as the NPA Institutional Policy Database, and myPostdoc Monthly, a webinar offering support to postdocs. To learn more about NPA free resources, events and opportunities, please visit the National Postdoctoral Association’s website.
DPA

- Connect with peers
