Pathways to the World

“ Drew graduates have the dual experience of a small classroom environment, where they cannot just blend into the crowd, and the opportunity to gain real-world experience with New York City internships. This combination makes Drew graduates an attractive hire for my or any other company.”

Ed Moed Drew University, Class of 1989 Co-founder and CEO of Peppercomm

Madison, New Jersey offers the best of both worlds—the comforts of small-town living with the benefits of big-city adventure. Just 47 minutes by train from midtown Manhattan, you’ll have convenient access to all the action of New York City and a safe, peaceful campus to call home.

Your Liberal Arts AdvantageOur liberal arts curriculum provides you with a well-rounded education. You will take classes in science, the arts and humanities, no matter your major, exposing you to fresh ideas and new ways of thinking.

Student-Driven LearningAt Drew, we do liberal arts a bit differently. We

focus on helping you become a well-rounded

individual. We prepare you for a lifetime of

great career experiences in an ever-changing

world. Flexible programs, close relationships

with professors, small class sizes and hands-

on experiences are how we help you take

full advantage of your American liberal

arts education.

FlexibilityA liberal arts education gives you the freedom to

choose your courses and create your own path

to an undergraduate degree. Combine majors

and minors in more than 50 fields of study . Our

approach to education gives you the freedom to

define your education. Nearly 50% of our students

double major within their four years at Drew.

Small Class SizesOur student-faculty ratio is 10:1, so the focus

is always on you. Professors have time to

work with you one-on-one and make sure you

understand the material. At Drew, we know more

than your name. We work to know your goals

and are committed to helping you reach them.

Your Professors CareOur professors are teachers first. Nearly 95% of

our faculty have earned the highest degree in

their field from prestigious universities and more

than 60% from global, top 50-ranked universities.

Need a letter of recommendation? Your letter

from a professor you have been doing research

with since your first year at Drew will speak

volumes to employers and graduate programs.

Access to faculty is unparalleled at Drew. Our

professors choose to spend their careers here

because of their passion for teaching and

mentoring undergraduate students like you.

Take Learning Outside the ClassroomWe believe that learning doesn’t just take place

in the classroom. With practical training in the

workplace, exceptional internship opportunities

and special off-campus programs, we turn

learning into an experience.

Try one of our Semesters in New York City,

where you learn directly from the people

working in your desired industry. Conduct

research in our one-of-a-kind RISE program,

which puts you in the research lab with leaders

in drug development, telecommunications and

even a Nobel Prize winner. Join one of our Short

TREC programs where you can learn more about

business in Italy or marine biology in Belize.

Each Drew student completes at least one out-

of-classroom experience before graduation.

Science OpportunitiesOne of the most important things for science majors is the opportunity to conduct research. Our undergraduate focus gets you in the lab as early as your first year. With our truly unique RISE program and professors who are still active in the larger scientific community, we offer unparalleled research opportunities for our undergraduates.

One-of-a-Kind RISE ProgramNew Jersey is the home of major drug

development laboratories and AT&T’s research

division. The Charles A. Dana Research Institute

for Scientists Emeriti offers you the unique

opportunity to engage in research under the

supervision of retired industrial scientists.

Working with RISE Fellows puts you in the lab

with the professional scientific community while

still an undergraduate, an experience typically

reserved for postgraduates.

RISE also gives you experience with analytic

equipment you’ll use on the job, from liquid

chromatography and cyclotrons to high-field

nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry.

RISE is unique: No other school has such a program.

Research With Nobel Prize WinnerRISE Fellow Associate Dr. William Campbell received

the 2015 Nobel Prize in Medicine for discovering

a drug that treats parasitic diseases. Campbell has

taught as a RISE Fellow for 20 years.

Pre-Med, Your Path to Medical SchoolBy leveraging a strong background in liberal arts

with an emphasis on science, social science

and humanities courses, we provide you with

unmatched opportunities for research and clinical

internships that are essential for admission to

medical school.

Pre-med students receive custom support,

including direction from both an academic advisor

who is a professor in your chosen major and a

pre-med advisor who is a member of the National

Association of Advisors for Health Professions. Of

our students who apply to medical school, 80%

are accepted; nearly twice the national average.

Research with FacultyInterested in something your professor

is researching? Just ask, and a world of

opportunities will open. Our faculty conduct

research on a wide range of important issues,

including bacterial pathogenesis, evolution

in polluted lakes, primate communication, the

molecular biology of cancer, international health

care, forest integrity, physiology, Alzheimer’s

disease, HIV/AIDS and more.

Drew Summer Science InstituteThe DSSI pairs you with faculty mentors for

an intensive, personal experience working

full-time on a research project. Each summer,

this six-week program provides opportunities

to pursue real-world scientific questions and

establish professional relationships with faculty

at research universities and local industries.

Each student receives on-campus housing, a

budget for laboratory supplies and a weekly

stipend throughout the duration of the program.

Work-Study With Morristown MedicalOur mentor program with nearby Morristown

Medical Center is a work-study semester

that allows you to shadow emergency room

physicians. You will witness first-hand what

it takes to be a doctor and gain valuable

experience before applying to a medical program.
