Research and Healthcare

Emory Healthcare, the largest healthcare system in Georgia, includes seven major hospitals, such as Emory University Hospital and Emory University Hospital Midtown. The university's research initiatives are extensive, focusing on public health, biomedical sciences, and global health.

In 2021, Emory received $894.7 million from external funding agencies, reflecting its significant research activity.

Campus and Locations

The main campus, situated in Atlanta's Druid Hills neighborhood, spans over 600 acres and is noted for its beautiful, forested environment.

Emory also operates Oxford College in Oxford, Georgia, which offers an associate degree in liberal arts. Students from Oxford College can advance to Emory College of Arts and Sciences to complete their undergraduate education.

Diversity and Community

Emory University is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive community. In fall 2024, the university had a total enrollment of 16,142 students, with 23.5% identifying as members of historically underrepresented groups.

The student body is diverse in terms of age and international representation, with students from various backgrounds and countries.

Recent Initiatives

In July 2025, Emory announced plans to redevelop a former auto garage and homeless shelter into over 50 competitively priced apartments specifically for healthcare workers at Emory Midtown.
