What will the new University be called, and what will it look like?
The new University will be called Drexel University. It will be one university, with eleven colleges and schools, one management team, one faculty, and one student body. The three parts of MCPHU – the College of Medicine, the College of Nursing and Health Professions, and the School of Public Health (“the MCPHU schools”) – will be just like the College of Engineering, the College of Arts and Science, and the School of Environmental Science, Engineering, and Policy. The medical school will remain in a separate corporation, which may also include the two other MCPHU schools – that has not yet been decided – which will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Drexel University and controlled by it. Whatever legal form the corporations take will not control how they operate: both parts will be one university.
