Emory's role in providing state health and hospital services and its School of Nursing make it a top prospect for students pursuing degrees in nursing, followed in popularity by biology concentrations, neuroscience, and general health and physical education.

These concentrations are stepping stones to research, public interest, and public service roles and consider big questions about social institutions and behaviors, with economics, psychology, and political science the most popular at Emory University.

Emory's School of Business offers a BBA degree track, attractive to many Emory students. Students learn business management, accounting, analysis, marketing, and leadership skills after completing an initial two years of liberal arts instruction.

Statistics, a requirement or complement for many social science concentrations, is the most popular math track at Emory, alongside general applied mathematics courses and majors.

From foreign languages, to linguistics, philosophy, creative writing, literature, history, and media and cultural studies, Emory has wide-ranging liberal arts pathways.
