Our research, field placements, and partnerships improve education on the ground across The School District of Philadelphia, addressing a microcosm of national issues in education. Our programs for working professionals and expertise in entrepreneurship infuse the professional landscape and education marketplace with ideas that make a difference. Our intercultural programs unleash the power of education locally and globally across linguistic and national boundaries. More than 500 of our alumni work in key positions at Penn, from heads of human resources and institutional data to our own vice dean of development and alumni relations. And our community of more than 16,000 alumni has a global impact in an array of professions that transform lives through education.
