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. Located in the heart of
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Drexel employs over 2,400 faculty members
and has a total enrollment of approximately 24,000 students. The quality

incorporating job experience into university education via its unique
cooperative education program. Since its founding, Drexel has been
committed to preparing its students for a rapidly changing workforce.
Drexel is designated as an R1 Doctoral University in the Carnegie
Classification of Institutions of Higher Education (one of only 39
private universities to earn the distinction.). 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. CoAS delivers a time-honoured liberal
arts education paired with Drexel’s renowned focus on applied learning,
with research and scholarship that explores contemporary issues with an
eye toward improving the common good. CoAS faculty are recognized
experts who drive discovery and collaboration across diverse disciplines
in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. The College
is home to approximately 290 full-time faculty, 2,140 undergraduates and
370 graduate students who study across 13 academic departments. The
Dean will be expected to foster partnerships within CoAS, with other
colleges and schools across the Drexel community, and externally in the
surrounding greater Philadelphia area and beyond.
