Organization

Rush University is a health-sciences university within the Rush University System for Health, with medical, nursing, and health-sciences programs and research collaborations across Chicago. Rush operates clinical and research programs including centers referenced in DePaul partnership materials (for example autism assessment and treatment services).

Access status

Relationship to DePaul

DePaul and Rush maintain a formal institutional collaboration spanning education, research, and community health equity. Rush co-founded the Center for Community Health Equity (CCHE) with DePaul in 2015 and signed a memorandum of understanding in 2021 to expand joint seminars, courses, academic programs, research, internships, and practicums across complementary health-science, liberal-arts, humanities, and data-science strengths.

Known collaborations & connections

  • Center for Community Health Equity (CCHE) — co-founded 2015; housed at DePaul LAS with cross-institutional faculty engagement (healthequitychicago.org).
  • 2021 MOU — expanded collaboration in science, education, and technology (Rush news).
  • Co-taught courses — for example Medical Entrepreneurship (NIH STRONG BRIDGE Facilities).
  • Summer fellowship — DePaul students in 10-week Rush Autism Assessment, Research, Treatment and Services Center fellowship (NIH STRONG BRIDGE Facilities).
  • Collaboratory activities — MPH practicum with Rush University Department of Preventive Medicine; AARTS Center referenced in partner network (institutional report). Collaboratory remains thin on Rush relative to the CCHE / MOU story on this page and UNI-012.
  • School of Nursing clinical network — Rush appears on the Nursing About sample clinical affiliate / employer list supporting CSH-022 clinical education pathways (institutional report).
  • Dual-system note (Sep 2026 crosswalk): CCHE is the flagship program hub often missing from Collaboratory activity titles; keep Rush ↔ CCHE ↔ Nursing clinical edges here rather than hunting net-new logos.
  • Connected DePaul units: UNI-012, CDM-011, UNI-002 (entrepreneurship courses), UNI-004.
