Drexel LeBow Societal Impact

Mission 

Drexel University’s LeBow College of Business is committed to developing the next generation of culturally competent, globally minded and innovative leaders in business and society through thought leadership and programing for social impact. We address social impact through the lenses of diversity, equity and inclusion and sustainability. We will advance diverse student, faculty and professional staff representation, drive equitable access to learning and experiential opportunities, and develop inclusive policies and practices.

Consistent with LeBow’s mission, we strive to foster a culture of belonging founded in diverse collaborative learning, external partnerships, research and increased representation and resources for underserved populations. Additionally, as a signatory to UN PRME we aim to raise the profile of sustainability in business and management education and provide future leaders with the skills needed to balance economic, environmental and social goals.

Vision 

As a top business school, we aspire to be leaders and partners in creating an inclusive community, advancing a global mindset for all students, faculty, professional staff and stakeholders, and provide thought leadership for the development of business strategies that impact the environment or society.

Thought Leadership

The LeBow College of Business is committed to supporting thought leadership by awarding quarterly Innovation Mini-grants to faculty, staff and/or students to develop new curriculum or support research tied to social impact.
