CO-OP

The Drexel Co-op experience is a renowned collegiate program and the essence of the Drexel Difference in the Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design. Design & Merchandising students spend a minimum of six months (two terms) working in paid positions during which they apply classroom and studio skills to an actual work experience within their chosen professions. Design & Merchandising students leave for co-op academically equipped to be part of a company, and return as young business professionals having integrated classroom knowledge into the workplace and improved their resume.
