The College of Arts and Sciences

Mission Statement
By pursuing excellence in research and scholarship, we educate our students to become ethical professionals and citizens with knowledge of and appreciation for the fundamental interactions among the humanities and the sciences in a fast-changing, challenging, and diverse world.

About the College of Arts and Sciences
The College of Arts and Sciences was established on July 1, 1990, with the merger of the College of Sciences and the College of Humanities. The educational objectives of the college encompass a wide range of goals: to provide general educational courses for the University's undergraduates; to provide disciplinary study in the arts and sciences for our Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts majors; to offer Master of Science and Doctoral programs in selected areas of faculty and research strength; to promote research, scholarships, and creative activities which expand disciplinary boundaries and to enhance faculty expertise and the quality of the university's instruction; and to improve the quality of life for the University's community through co-curricular programming in the arts and sciences.

Each undergraduate major offered by the College of Arts and Sciences combines disciplinary study with broad and useful preparation for a variety of careers as well as for further study in graduate or professional school. Each combines arts and sciences coursework with an emphasis on new and emerging technology related to their respective fields.

All undergraduate majors in the college offer co-operative education program options, with special opportunities relating academic study to work experience.

The college is open to transfer students, but (for undergraduate students) transfer after the seventh term is not recommended. Applicants from another Drexel college may be admitted in any term of the academic year if they meet program requirements. Students should consult the Assistant Deans of the College of Arts and Sciences for further information. The College's dedicated staff of professional advisors work to enhance a student's educational journey through a comprehensive academic advising program.
