Pros

Emory University is an excellent academic institution to work for. What I value and appreciate most about this school are the following qualities. Resource rich Challenging diverse rigorous

Cons

Leadership does not always consult with students or department heads when making drastic changes. For example, in the fall of 2012 the university cut 5 graduate programs (giving the students 5 years to graduate or transfer to a different department) with no warning or explanation
