We strive to offer more ways to keep DePaul employees engaged and connected to DePaul’s mission. The Office of Human Resources works together with managers and employees to build an environment where individuals are enthusiastic about their work and are committed to the university’s values and goals.
DePaul University's mission is to make an extraordinary education accessible.
As DePaul employees, we collaborate, communicate and cooperate to provide exceptional service to our students, colleagues and the community.
