Mission & Focus Areas

Emory states that its mission is to create, preserve, teach, and apply knowledge in the service of humanity. Its University Research Committee supports scholarship across academic disciplines, including the arts, biological and health sciences, humanities, interdisciplinary work, mathematics and natural sciences, and social sciences. The committee’s stated aims include supporting early-career faculty, more advanced faculty pursuing new questions, and faculty teams undertaking interdisciplinary research.

Emory’s 2025 grants included research and subcontract awards to organizations with varied missions. For example, Georgia Tech Research Corporation says it supports Georgia Tech research, technical assistance, and economic development; Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta says its mission is to make children better today and healthier tomorrow; and Morehouse School of Medicine says it works to advance health equity and improve health and well-being, with emphasis on people of color and underserved populations. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not Emory’s.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, Emory reported 362 grants totaling $183.7 million. Grant amounts ranged from $5,500 to $19.1 million, with a median of $96,662. The largest listed awards included $19,125,054 to Saint Joseph’s Hospital of Atlanta and $18,820,255 to EmorySaint Joseph’s, both for research/subcontract purposes. Other large awards included $9,368,194 to Georgia Tech Research Corporation, $5,675,220 to OraSure Technologies, and $5,529,613 to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, all for research/subcontract purposes.

Emory’s website describes curated funding opportunities for cross-unit, multidisciplinary, and collaborative work. The University Research Committee’s 2026–2027 cycle invites proposals across six academic categories. Emory’s Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry also describes fellowships for undergraduate honors projects and postdoctoral scholars. These are university programs for participants, rather than evidence of an open grant program for outside organizations. The undergraduate fellowship listing gives a May 15, 2026 recommendation deadline, which has passed.

Emory’s website describes support for developing proposals and identifying potential funding sources.
