Welcome to the Office of the Provost

We are pleased to announce a major milestone in Drexel’s Academic Transformation: the beginning of the integration of the College of Engineering, the College of Computing & Informatics and the School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems into a new academic unit—the College of Engineering and Computing.

This summer marks a pivotal moment in Drexel’s Academic Transformation as we move from design to implementation. Over the past year, our community has engaged in an extraordinary effort to reimagine the academic experience. More than 30 sprint reports, countless hours of collaboration, and bold ideas have shaped a vision for the future of Drexel.
