Woodruff Library Asbury Circle. Introduction Graduate school is a big step. For example: You are on your way to becoming a "professional philosopher," or at least an expert in the field.
This means you will be expected to be familiar with a range of topics, including the contemporary status of scholarship in your area of specialization AOS as well as general information about the history of philosophy. If you are planning to enter academia, i. Although your studies may allow you to continue exploring the history of philosophy by reading a variety of thinkers, you will need to focus on an area or figure in philosophy, becoming extremely familiar with the relevant body of work in that area i.
Guides There are a few guides to help you through the graduate school application process, including some offering advice on whether graduate school might be a good idea for you. Programs: Should You Apply, and Where? Islamic Civilizations Studies at Emory University offers a unified thematic approach to the global impact of Islamic civilizations. By using a broad-based and integrated multidisciplinary approach to understanding and analyzing the Islamic world, graduates of the ICIVS program will be well prepared to assess and make sense of the momentous changes that have and are taking place in this region in a wide range of professional capacities.
The Certificate in Jewish Studies is designed for Ph. The goals of the program are:. The Mathematics graduate program offers a vital intellectual community that combines cutting-edge research with a friendly and supportive atmosphere.
We have active research groups in several areas, including collaborations with faculty members from other programs and schools at Emory and with researchers at universities across the world.
It is designed to provide highly qualified students with the in-depth, high-caliber research training and medical education needed by biomedical academicians of the future. The program design allows students considerable flexibility in arranging both the graduate and medical school phases of study. The Program in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics MMG provides training in the study of microorganisms and the use of microbial models to investigate basic problems in molecular genetics.
Our faculty members have a wide range of expertise and interests, and our program offers a comprehensive education in the biology of microbes: bacterial genetics and physiology, microbial development, molecular biology of viruses and bacterial pathogens, mechanisms of bacterial and viral pathogenesis, molecular biology of gene regulation, antibiotic resistance, antiviral and vaccine development.
The central goal of the MMG program is to train successful independent investigators in microbiology research. We teach our students the basic principles of microbiology, biochemistry, molecular biology and molecular genetics, and train our students to read the original literature and interpret it critically. Our goal is to enable our students to construct hypotheses and to design experiments using contemporary technologies to test these hypotheses.
We emphasize training in effective communication, both oral and written. The program is designed both for students interested in academic careers in teaching and research and for those interested in careers in related aspects of medicine and industry.
The certificate in Mind, Brain, and Culture provides an opportunity for students to engage in a cross-disciplinary training experience to broaden their knowledge of and experience with concepts, theories, and methods pertaining to the study of mind, brain, and culture from fields outside their own. Students from any doctoral program interested in issues associated with mind, brain, culture or their intersections are eligible to pursue this certificate.
The Molecular and Systems Pharmacology MSP graduate program at Emory University has a great deal to offer students interested in learning how the drugs of today work and how the novel therapeutics of tomorrow can revolutionize healthcare. The program also offers broad training in the biomedical sciences that prepares students for diverse careers in medical research.
Each year brings the development of exciting new therapeutics in the treatment of cancer, heart disease, AIDS, diabetes, psychiatric disorders, and other diseases. Pharmacology seeks to understand how such therapeutics work and to use this knowledge, along with techniques such as molecular modeling and computer-aided design, to develop new ideas that may lead to the revolutionary drugs of the future. Pharmacology also includes toxicology, the study of the adverse effects of certain drugs and environmental pollutants.
Emory University was recently rated by The Scientist magazine as the 1 university in the world in terms of impact in pharmacology and toxicology research.
Particular strengths within the MSP program include neuropharmacology, cancer biology, AIDS research, cardiovascular pharmacology, toxicology, and chemical biology. The broad spectrum of research expertise provides our students a unique environment in which to pursue their graduate education.
Thus, our program provides access to excellent labs focused on a wide variety of specialties within neuroscience. The first-year core curriculum focuses on basic cellular, molecular and systems neuroscience, coupled with research rotations that lead to selection of a thesis advisor. The program is designed to prepare researchers who want to revolutionize health care and improve health outcomes for diverse populations.
Our PhD program is a full-time, intense learning experience designed to develop the next generation of researchers, a generation that will change the face of health care. The program is interdisciplinary, drawing on the strengths of Emory University and its partners in areas as varied as the humanities, natural and social sciences, public health, engineering, theology, law, and business.
The faculty, staff and students of the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing are dedicated to the values of scholarship, leadership and social responsibility in shaping our current and future work as members of a leading private school of nursing. Nutritional science is an increasingly prominent aspect of biomedical science as well as public health programs and policies.
Nutrition focuses on foods and nutrients — the composition of foods, the determinants and patterns of food consumption, the relation of foods consumed to physiological needs, and the fate of the nutrients in biochemical processes. Nutritional science investigates these phenomena on many levels, ranging from biochemical processes on the molecular level to population- level determinants of nutrition in the context of social environments.
Nutrition is the quintessential translational science in which discovery, development, and delivery intersect. Advances in the understanding of biochemical processes change the management of clinical disease and public health programs; clinical observations drive future research into the mechanisms of pathophysiology and disease progression; and the need for effective public health programs leads to research on behavior modification and the social processes that influence dietary habits.
The Philosophy PhD program at Emory aims to produce teachers and scholars with a broad and systematic understanding of the history of philosophy. We welcome a diversity of approaches to the study of philosophy, including: analytic, continental, historical, literary, multicultural, and pragmatic.
We seek to prepare our graduate students to make scholarly contributions in their areas of expertise and to become responsible members of the philosophical community.
Our department has both historical and systematic interests. We are particularly strong in four areas:. The graduate program in Physics offers a comprehensive education in physics and opportunities to engage in experimental and theoretical research with internationally-recognized groups using state of-the-art techniques and instrumentation.
The research in the program is focused in four principal areas, which are currently among the most active in the basic and applied physical sciences. Both experimental and theoretical research is conducted in the program in each of these areas. Physics researchers at Emory benefit from close interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations with faculty in other graduate programs and research centers at the University.
The study of politics is one of the oldest scholarly disciplines, with an intellectual lineage that includes Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, Locke, and Tocqueville. Political scientists approach the study of politics from a variety of theoretical, normative, and methodological perspectives, all oriented toward understanding and explaining political life. At Emory, we engage in a broad range of approaches to the study of politics, but share a strong commitment to systematic, methodologically rigorous research.
Our goal is to train political scientists to engage in research and teaching. Our greatest strength is our faculty.
Thirty internationally recognized faculty cover a wide range of scholarly interests, including international conflict, international political economy, American and comparative judicial politics, congressional politics, elections, urban public policy, political philosophy, the politics of authoritarian regimes, the politics of Southeast Asia, gender and politics, Islam and politics, and the European Union.
The department has achieved national stature; Emory has been ranked as a top 20 department by a number of measures of faculty research productivity. Population biologists pursue research focused on understanding the basis, causes, maintenance, dynamics, and effects of variation in natural populations in systems ranging from viruses to humans.
The program in PBEE includes six main areas of inquiry, which broadly encompass major areas of research pursued by our graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty mentors. These include in alphabetical order :. The program is committed to training outstanding researchers capable of original work at the forefront of contemporary interdisciplinary biological science. Coursework provides students with the fundamental knowledge and skills needed to become successful, independent researchers.
Frequent interaction between professors and students across the PBEE program facilitates an atmosphere of open discourse, cooperative research, and discovery. The Psychoanalytic Studies Program PSP deals with the theory, application, and history of psychoanalytic thought and practice.
It is not a clinical training program. Designed to give students a thorough knowledge of psychoanalysis across a range of disciplines, the certificate requires participation in series of informal talks by faculty and students, attendance at colloquia provided by faculty and psychoanalysts, completion of a four-course curriculum, preparation of a substantial paper of publishable quality and inclusion of a section on Psychoanalytic Studies in departmental doctoral examination.
In addition, faculty affiliated with the Emory University Psychoanalytic Institute, the Atlanta Foundation for Psychoanalysis, and the Atlanta Psychoanalytic Society participate in the program, linking the academy with the psychiatric and psychoanalytic communities. Some psychoanalytic studies program courses enroll both analytic candidates and graduate students, fostering a rare opportunity for dialogue between traditionally disparate worlds.
The PSP students are provided a great deal of flexibility in designing courses of study to suit their unique needs and interests. Because psychoanalytic thought is not bound to one discipline, students are encouraged to cross disciplinary and intellectual boundaries. Our mission is to foster graduate students to become world-class researchers, scientists, and scholars who contribute knowledge and skills to the central and enduring questions of psychology.
We are an open and inclusive community committed to diversity. Our PhD Program has four concentrations to choose from.
Faculty and graduate students affiliate with at least one and often two. Behavioral and Systems Neuroscience BSN The study of the neural, genetic, hormonal and cognitive processes underlying behavior, in non-human animals in particular. Clinical Science CS The study of the assessment, etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of psychopathology. The Clinical Science concentration includes a clinical training sequence designed to prepare competent clinicians who employ empirically supported assessment and treatment procedures.
Cognitive and Computational Science CCS The study of the conceptual and neural systems underlying human perception and cognition. Developmental Science DS The study of the origins of the human mind and brain over development. The Graduate Division of Religion GDR prepares scholars and teachers of religion and theology, requiring mastery of a specialized field in the context of a general knowledge of the study of religion and the varieties of religious expression and practice.
The GDR is unique because of the collegiality and collaboration that characterize this mix: not only faculty working with students, but also theologians working with sociologists, ethicists working with lawyers, Islamicists working with Buddhist scholars, ethnographers working with historians.
We provide rigorous training in theory, research design, and statistics, as well as extensive preparation in these major substantive areas:.
We also collaborate in exploring links across these areas. Ongoing projects explore the effects of inequality on physical, mental, and social well-being, the interface between social psychology and culture, and the globalization of cultural objects such as Sudoku and institutions such as religion and trade.
The Certificate Program in Translational Research is multidisciplinary program of the Emory Laney Graduate School for PhD students, Emory postdocs and faculty members who seek to conduct research at the interface between basic science and clinical medicine.
Despite the explosive growth in biomedical knowledge, it has been increasingly difficult to translate this knowledge and discovery into applications for the treatment of disease and to benefit human health.
Thus, there is an urgent need to facilitate the translation of biomedical knowledge to improve human health and to address the gap between biology and medicine. This certificate program will enhance and transform translational research training for PhD students at Emory University, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Morehouse School of Medicine.
Emory was the first university to offer the Ph. The WGSS emphasizes a wide interdisciplinary range of comparative feminist theories and empirical perspectives as well as grounding in traditional disciplines.
