About Drexel University

Summer camp with Digital Media Academy at Drexel will give your teen or child a unique opportunity to learn game development for the iPhone, flash scripting for web design, digital art and Photoshop, robotics, or any one of many other camp options. These summer camps, with day or overnight options, allow teens, pre-teens, and kids ages 6 to 18 to express their creativity and produce their own projects using state-of-the-art equipment. In addition, for those teens who want in-depth knowledge, Digital Media Academy’s two-week programs in game design and filmmaking provide an intensive learning experience for teens. Whatever camp they choose for summer enrichment, your kids will have a grand adventure at Drexel with Digital Media Academy.

Drexel University was founded in 1891 as the Drexel Institute of Art, Science and Industry by Philadelphia financier and philanthropist Anthony J. Drexel to provide educational opportunities in the “practical arts and sciences” for women and men of all backgrounds. One of the premier technological universities in the world and a leader in curricular innovation, Drexel was the first university to require all entering students to have microcomputers.

Its programs are consistently ranked by U.S. News & World Report among the “Best” in the fields of Business, Education, Engineering, and Library Science. Located in downtown Philadelphia, a short walk from the University of Pennsylvania and several historic landmarks, Drexel offers a great destination for students attending the Digital Media Academy summer camps.
