Corporations/Foundations

“Drexel’s graduates have contributed to our business success, for many years, in countless ways. They’re prepared to offer substantive contributions on day one. We’ve also benefited from Drexel’s pioneering research in our industry. It’s our pleasure to invest in Drexel.”

Over the years, Drexel’s developed active, mutually-beneficial relationships with corporations and foundations by applying the support we receive to use-inspired education, problem-solving research, and cooperative working agreements. Now, more than ever, we need visionary corporate and foundation partners to invest in Drexel. Here’s how your organization can help:

• You can intensify the University’s research efforts in new and emerging technologies, for health care, “green” engineering, evolving media, and much more.

• You can provide scholarships in highly-specialized studies or diverse, interdisciplinary arenas such as environmental sustainability, robotic medical devices, or life sciences.

• You can name advanced classroom, laboratory, and other facilities so that students on campus and via distance learning have the resources necessary to become the next generation of innovators and leaders.

“Our foundation’s mission is to ‘help people help themselves.’ Through its areas of study and cooperative learning opportunities, Drexel University has designed innovative research methods and programs to address today’s most pressing socioeconomic challenges and advance the welfare of society here and now.”
