Produktbeschreibung

Emory University is a private research university in metropolitan Atlanta, located in the Druid Hills section of unincorporated DeKalb County, Georgia. In addition to its four undergraduate divisions Emory College, Oxford College, Goizueta Undergraduate School of Business, and Woodruff School of Nursing Undergraduate program Emory has nine graduate and professional schools, including schools of business, law, medicine, theology, nursing, and public health, as well as thirteen graduate programs in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. Emory was originally chartered in 1836 by a small group of Methodists as Emory College in honor of John Emory, a popular bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The school struggled financially until a generous land-grant by Asa Candler, the president of the Coca-Cola Company, allowed the small college to move to DeKalb County near Atlanta and become rechartered as Emory University. The philanthropy of Coca-Cola fortunes such as those belongingto the Candlers, the Woodruffs, and the Goizuetas enabled Emory's growth and empowered its ambition.
