A Drake education will change you. You’re already driven to explore your world and find ways to make it better. You’ll get the tools to do that here. That’s because Drake University is a place where you’ll be surrounded by professors who are mentors and a community that is a classroom.
That growth is fostered in countless ways. Such as small classes that lend themselves to in-depth discussions and meaningful relationships with the people who teach you. And via our commitment to service learning, in which classroom lessons spill over onto campus, into Des Moines, and even in other countries.
The things we’re the most proud of today were here when we started: Drake was founded in 1881 by forward-thinking leaders with a vision for a university that would be broad-based, modern, and open to all. Today, we’re a model for experiential learning, led by individuals who understand that our most important job is to provide opportunity to the life-changing power of a Drake education, giving our students the skills to become leaders themselves.
