Drexel's Work Study Mix

Appeared on March 5, 2007

The school seeks career-driven students who are enthusiastic about a co-op education program, says Director of Undergraduate Programs Ian Sladen  

If the idea of taking classes part of the year and working for the rest appeals to you, Drexel University's LeBow College of Business might be a perfect fit.

The university, located in Philadelphia, has put its own twist on the cooperative education program. Business majors attend classes throughout their freshman year. Then, for the rest of their time at Drexel, they switch back and forth between periods of full-time academic work and full-time employment.
