1 OXFORD ROAD BUILDING (ORB)The ORB is home to the Offi ce of
Undergraduate Admission, Barnes & Noble bookstore, where students can buy textbooks and Emory apparel, and one of the largest collegiate Starbucks in the U.S.
2 BOISFEUILLET JONES CENTERB. Jones houses the Offi ce of Financial
Aid. Emory is need-blind for admitted domes-tic students. Therefore, a student’s fi nancial status does not drive our admission decisions. B. Jones also houses Pre-Health Advising, Pre-Law Advising, and the Career Center. The Career Center helps students fi nd internships and jobs, create resumes and cover letters, and apply to graduate schools.
3 THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
This building houses the Offi ce of the Provost and other offi ces that oversee the operations of Emory University.
28 PSYCHOLOGY AND INTER-DISCIPLINARY SCIENCES
BUILDINGThe Department of Psychology houses the Emory Child Studies Center, a neuro imaging center, and various research laboratories.
29 MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE CENTER (MSC)
MSC houses the departments of computer science, environmental sciences, mathemat-ics, and physics. It also contains a planetar-ium, a telescope, offi ce spaces, classrooms, laboratories, and a library.
30 HEALTH SCIENCES QUADAcross the bridge over Eagle Row,
commonly called the “biology bridge,” is the Health Sciences Quad. The buildings in this area are home to classes and labs for biology, human health, and public health. This quad includes two of Emory Univer-sity’s schools, the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing and Rollins School of Public Health, as well as research buildings, a library, and classrooms.
4 THE QUADRANGLE“The Quad” is the original and historical
part of the Atlanta campus. Students are often seen studying, laying in hammocks, meeting for classes, or playing Frisbee. Every May, 14,000 chairs are set up for Commencement to cele-brate the graduating class.
5 MICHAEL C. CARLOS MUSEUM
The Carlos Museum is one of the Southeast’s leading art museums and serves the communi-ty through its distinguished exhibition calendar. The museum’s collection includes objects from ancient Egypt, Nubia, Near East, Greece, Rome, ancient Americas, Africa, and Asia, as well as works ranging from the Renaissance to the present.
6 HENRY L. BOWDEN HALLHome to the Departments of Histo ry
and Philosophy, this building is named for a former chair of the Board of Trustees. Henry Bowden led the fi ght to overturn a
Georgia law prohib iting private colleges from integrating by taking away their state tax ex-emption. When the state supreme court struck down the law in 1962, a better Emory—and a better state—became possible.
7 CALL AWAY MEMORIAL CENTER
Callaway provides offi ce and classroom space for numerous majors. It houses the Writing Center, a free resource to all students, where both undergraduate and graduate tutors sup-port writers of all levels, abilities, disciplines, and in any stage of the writing process.
8 CANDLER LIBRARYThe library is named for Asa Candler,
founder of The Co ca-Cola Company and one of Emory’s earliest benefactors. The Matheson Reading Room, located on the 3rd fl oor of the Candler Library, is arguably one of the quietest places to study on campus. The room resem-bles a set from Harry Potter, with low-hanging, dim lights and long, dark wooden tables.
9 OFFICE OF INTERNATIONAL AND SUMMER PROGRAMS (OISP)
OISP offers around 120 study abroad programs in over 40 countries. Students can spend a summer, semester, or a full academic year abroad, and about 40% of Emory seniors have an international educational experience by the time they graduate.
10 WOODRUFF LIBRARY Named after Robert W. Woodruff, a
former CEO of The Coca-Cola Company, the Atlanta campus’s main library is home to print and electronic resources, classrooms, and study spaces.
31 LULLWATER PRESERVEThis 154-acre wildlife preserve sits right
on Emory’s Atlanta campus. The preserve’s landscape features the beautiful Candler Lake, a 210-foot suspension bridge, acres of green space, and miles of walking and jogging trails. Motor vehicles are not per-mitted inside the preserve which maintains Lullwater’s peaceful environment.
32 HAYGOOD-HOPKINS GATEMarking the main entrance to the
Atlanta campus, the gate, constructed in 1937, memorializes Emory’s history before the university relocated to Atlanta. It’s named after two Emory graduates, Atticus Greene Haygood and Isaac Stiles Hopkins, who later served as presidents of Emory University. Today, it is one of the campus’s most iconic landmarks and a great location for photo opportunities.

22 EAGLE ROW The Greek letter organizations mainly
reside along Eagle Row. Approximately 30% of Emory students participate in Greek Life. Recruitment is deferred until the second semester of a student’s first year, giving them time to familiarize themselves with college and campus life before deciding if they wish to become involved in Greek Life.

Atwood was designed to blur the lines between classroom learning and hands-on lab-oratory experience in order to change how the world views science education. Laborato ries with glass windows make science more trans-parent and inclusive. The “Science Commons” atrium is a popular place for students of all majors to study in a social and collaborative environment.
