About the concentrations

Drexel also builds on some of the strengths for which Drexel University is nationally known by initially offering three optional concentrations. These are areas in which there are expanding employment opportunities and a need for specialized knowledge and skills: Intellectual Property, Health, and Entrepreneurial Business. These concentrations consist not only of specialized courses taught in the classroom, but also experiential learning opportunities such as co-ops and simulations.
