Drake University

The University sponsors an active program of research and outreach including influential centers and the investigations of individual faculty span an equally broad spectrum. Among co-curricular opportunities, students take advantage of many options for developing leadership abilities and engaging in service-learning. Drake students, faculty, and staff take full advantage of the wealth of cultural, recreational, and business opportunities found in Des Moines. In return, Drake enriches the city through its own cultural offerings, its considerable economic impact, and many endeavors in service- learning that channel the talent and energy of the Drake community toward meeting the needs of our neighbors.
