Other courses (e.g., internships) require instructors to conduct field supervision of teacher candidates across the quarter, in placements around the city of Chicago and sometimes the collar suburbs. Please note: DePaul’s academic year is based upon quarters of 11 weeks. There are three quarters across September-June, with breaks between them.
