Graduate & Professional Schools
Emory offers specialized studies and unmatched research opportunities at seven graduate and professional schools on the university's main Atlanta campus.
Our academic programs focus on the arts and sciences, business, law, theology, and the health professions. These disciplines are unified by their devotion to liberal learning, by cooperative interdisciplinary programs and by the common pursuit of intellectual distinction.
We prepare future leaders of society in their areas of expertise. Our graduates embody the goals of Emory University's mission: to create, preserve, teach and apply knowledge in the service of humanity.
Graduate students may pursue more than 40 programs across the humanities, the social sciences, biomedical and natural science, public health, nursing and business. All seven of our post-graduate schools offer joint degree programs.
The Laney Graduate School confers all doctorates that are offered in the school-based areas of expertise. Please refer to our Degrees and Programs listings and the school websites for more detailed guidance.
