Layered-Learning™
At DePaul, our unique Layered-Learning™ approach brings our Vincentian values to life by combining classroom lessons with project-based and community-based service learning. We believe student success doesn’t just come from students hearing about the world, but engaging with it directly.
Classroom Learning
With a 17:1 student-to-faculty ratio, classroom learning is not a distant lecture but a living dialogue, shaped by the spirit of Vincentian personalism. Our faculty find what challenges and interests you on an individual level, enabling you to engage with the course content and reach your full potential. These mentors weave together innovative practices, pioneering research and powerful professional networks into every lesson plan.

Service Learning
In order to shape the leaders of tomorrow, we believe that education should be a two-way conversations with the community. That’s why every student is given the opportunity to practice their vocation in real-time to create positive change in the real-world. DePaul students engage in more than 3,500 service hours with 250 community organizations; the kind of invaluable experience that makes them compassionate leaders and agents of change.
