Explore Chicago
Chicago is our classroom, our gallery, and our playground.
UChicago is a global university, and the city of Chicago—an extension of our classroom in many ways—is a global city with worldwide organizations, international commerce, and fine arts. Like UChicago, the city is an intellectual destination, drawing top scholars, companies, entrepreneurs, and artists who enhance the academic experience of our students. Plus, UChicago’s close relationships with businesses and institutions across the city connects students to exceptional resources and meaningful mentorship. This unparalleled access enables students to prepare for their future careers, gather experience, and engage their interests.
Chicago is the sum of its many great parts: distinct personalities, local flavors, and vibrant cultures. Woven together by an extensive public transportation system, all Chicago has to offer is easily accessible to UChicago students.
