Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science

Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science is a private, non-profit, Historically Black College and University and a Minority Serving Institution found in Willowbrook, unincorporated Los Angeles County, California, United States.[1][2] It was made in 1966 in light of lacking helpful workplaces inside the Watts locale of Los Angeles, California, USA. Later, the establishment transformed into an University and changed its name to reflect its new educational part. The University is named to pay tribute to Dr. Charles R. Drew. It was joined with the past Martin Luther King Jr./Charles R. Drew Medical Center from 1972 to 2006, and once in a while suggested as King-Drew University.

The school is a section school of Thurgood Marshall College Fund
