A Message from the Associate Dean

I am excited to announce the launch of our Faculty Awards and Honors Database. A go-to for data about the awards and honors our faculty have received, this searchable resource includes national and international, regional, Drexel, and college recognitions. Collectively, this list highlights the amazing work that each of you is doing in your field and at Drexel.
Please give the database a try by searching for your name and let us know if any prominent awards are missing. If you have any edits to the information listed or would like to talk more about new honors and awards you would like to be nominated for, please reach out to Dorilona Rose, Director, Policy & External Affairs.
