Johns Hopkins University

In 1876, Johns Hopkins University became the first university in the United States to be modeled after European research institutions. Located in Baltimore, MD, the private research university aims to encourage research and the advancement of individual scholars, who by their excellence would advance the sciences they pursue, and the society in which they dwell. After more than 130 years in academia, it can certainly be said it has accomplished its original purpose, and much more. Johns Hopkins University currently claims the first place title for university research funding for the last thirty-four years running.

Johns Hopkins University’s official current mission is “to educate its students and cultivate their capacity for life-long learning, to foster independent and original research, and to bring the benefits of discovery to the world.” From the arts and music to humanities and natural sciences, engineering, international studies, business, medicine and more, Johns Hopkins University has become one of the most recognized education and research universities in the world. Two of the university’s most popular current majors are International Studies and Writing Seminars. Others include Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, Public Health, and Cell/Cellular and Molecular Biology.

When it comes to Johns Hopkins’ International Studies and Writing Seminar majors, the school has a long list of notable alumni that includes the likes of Caryle Murphy, MA, SAIS 1987 Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and long-time international reporter for The Washington Post, Jody Williams, MA, SAIS 1984 and founding coordinator of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL) and winner of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize; and Kathleen Schalch, MA, SAIS ’88 and NPR business reporter. All are graduates of SAIS, Johns Hopkins University’s Nitze School of Advanced International Studies.

Johns Hopkins University has a student population of approximately 20,871. Approximately 6,023 of those are undergraduates. The student-faculty ratio is about 10:1 and more than 3/4 of all classes have fewer than twenty students, providing more than ample attention to each and every attendee.

When it comes to activities outside of the classroom, more than two-thirds of the student body participate in at least one volunteer activity. Additionally, more than half of all undergraduates live in one of the ten residence halls or apartment buildings on the 140-acre campus. It can be seen how the collegiate social life flourishes with inner activity among the students who attend this prestigious university.

Johns Hopkins University competes in NCAA Division III athletics, with the exception ofthe men’s and women’s lacrosse teams, which are Division I.
