Where We Want to Go ?

• Historically DREXEL has been recognized as the
  source of some of the best engineering talent who
  perform the usual engineering tasks with minimal
  ramp-up time
• In addition to this we now want people to come to
  DREXEL seeking solutions to their technically
  challenging problems and to seek partnerships for
  exploring new technological opportunities
• We are now staging a growth to serve as
  Think-Tank in assisting the society to better
  face the challenges of tomorrow.
• We want to see our graduates possess the
  capacity to advance in their careers at the
  national leadership platform
