The goals of the Drexel BS Interior Design Program are to:
- Expose the student to a variety of design experiences, attitudes and viewpoints.
- Develop innovative, creative problem solvers who can make aesthetic judgments and be critical of those judgments.
- Enable the student to learn the personal and professional responsibilities inherent in working together.
- Develop students who are responsible for the health, safety, welfare, shelter, support, and the enrichment of all occupants of the interior environment.
- Instill in the student awareness and sensitivity to environmental, social, cultural and ethical responsibilities.
Freshman Writing Award, Honorable Mention
Every year Freshman Writing Program (FWP) instructors may nominate two students in each section of English 101 for consideration for the FWP Writing Awards. A panel of faculty judges reads and evaluates the nominated essays, determining the first-, second-, and third-place winners, as well as several runners-up. The awards are then given out at the Department of English & Philosophy Awards Ceremony at the conclusion of the Week of Writing (WoW) in the spring. In addition, many of the winning essays appear the following year in The 33rd, an anthology FWP instructors use in their classes.
