The Search



Drexel University seeks an experienced, innovative, and strategic leader to serve as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences (CoAS). Reporting directly to the Executive Vice President and Provost, the Dean will provide visionary leadership to propel CoAS forward and will have responsibility for personnel, general administration and management, budget, academic and development functions. This is an exceptional opportunity for a creative and collaborative leader to articulate a vision for the College, while building on Drexel’s position as one of the nation’s leading private, comprehensive, research universities with a historical commitment to impactful teaching, research, and technological leadership.



Drexel’s historical foundation as an institution committed to solving problems in science, industry, business, and the arts, as well as its more recent expansion into fields such as medicine, public health, and law, has established the University as a global leader in research, technology, and experiential learning.

Drexel is consistently ranked among the top 100 national research universities in the United States by notable publications such as U.S. News and World Report, the Wall Street Journal, and Times Higher Education US College Rankings.



The College of Arts and Sciences is foundational to the entire University community with departments and programs that involve students from all colleges and schools. Through comprehensive, real-world approach to education, CoAS empowers its graduates to respond to the world’s most pressing issues, underscoring the importance and value of the liberal arts and sciences.
