DePaul’s close ties to Chicago’s nonprofit organizations make it easy for you to get the real-world experience you need. For a career in the nonprofit, public and private sectors, you’ll find many organizations within walking distance of our Loop Campus, including Chicago Community Trust, Rotary International, World Relief and YMCA of the USA.

You’ll study with faculty like Jacob Stump, who has taught a range of classes with topics including international relations, security and insecurity in world politics, critical approaches to terrorism and security, US foreign policy, international political economy, and social science fiction. His research and teaching interests focus on the social construction of insecurity especially related to (counter)terrorism, the everyday politics of economy, and the colonial relationship in Appalachia.
