Who we are

Founded in 2006, Drexel Smart House is a student-led, faculty-supported, multidisciplinary organization that promotes innovations in Philadelphia. The 3425 Race Street property serves both as a tool for student-led projects to develop these innovations and as a connection between Drexel Smart House and the surrounding community, enabling Drexel Smart House to spread its benefits beyond the University.

Our overarching purpose is to create and discover technologies that are accessible, applicable, and beneficial to urban life - particularly Philadelphia. We do this by facilitating design, research, and entrepreneurial projects run by Drexel University student members. The Drexel Smart House property on campus acts as an interactive model of how our projects can be incorporated into existing Philadelphia homes and infrastructure. Right at the gateway between Drexel University and the residential Philadelphia community, we are in the prime location to disseminate Drexel innovation throughout Philadelphia following our “Smart House, Smart Block, Smart Community” philosophy
