DeVry University (pronounced duh-VRY, to rhyme with “eye”) is actually a network of career-centric schools with dozens of locations in the United States and Canada. Dr. Hermann DeVry established the university bearing his name over 75 years ago in 1931 in Chicago and since then it has grown into one of the largest post-secondary institutions in the country.
