Dedicated to teaching, research, and public service. However, in pursuing its own distinctive purposes, among these three fundamental responsibilities this university places highest priority on programs of instruction and learning.

DePaul offers a high caliber, challenging learning environment that is respected by employers, community leaders and other universities. Many of our more than 275 graduate and undergraduate programs of study have earned national acclaim, and has received both institutional and specialized accreditation. DePaul's location in Chicago provides countless opportunities for class projects, research, internships and experiential learning programs that bring theory to life. Our nationally ranked service-learning program integrates the service concept into our curriculum and inspires many students to make a lifelong commitment to service and social justice. They complement the university's own dedication to serving first-generation and underserved student populations and to addressing social issues through more than 45 specialized centers and institutes.
