According to the drexel website, http://www.drexel.edu, In 1891, near the end of a long and prosperous life, Philadelphia financier and philanthropist Anthony J. Drexel founded the Drexel Institute of Art, Science and Industry, providing educational opportunities in the "practical arts and sciences" for women and men from all walks of life. As society's need for technically proficient leaders grew, so did Mr. Drexel's institution, becoming Drexel Institute of Technology in 1936, and then Drexel University in 1970. Mr. Drexel and his niece, Blessed Katharine Drexel, held a shared mission in life-education. They founded two universities, both of which are thriving: Xavier University in New Orleans by Blessed Katharine in 1917, and Drexel University by Anthony.
Drexel is also the only school offering a mandatory co-operative education ("co-op") program in Pennsylvania, and one of only three in the United States, Drexel's 81-year-old co-op program is one of the nation's oldest, largest, and most respected.
