Employee and Student Discounts

Through agreements negotiated by University Procurement, Drexel employees, and sometimes students and even alumni, are able to receive special benefits and discounted goods and services from certain vendors for personal purchases.

Discounted travel services (hotels, car rentals, and parking) for employees and students are listed separately and are available on the Travel Services section of this web site.

Discounted computers and software available to employees and students for personal use can be purchased at the IRT Computer Marketplace and are offered through a partnership between University Procurement and the Office of Information Resources and Technology (IRT).
