Laney Graduate School

Shaping leaders in service to the global good, the James T. Laney School of Graduate Studies prepares a diverse, inclusive student body for success through scholarship, research, teaching, and programming.

Through your generous support, Laney Graduate School is positioned to ready students for a larger range of careers in a competitive, ever-changing job market and aid them in identifying new ways to utilize their degrees by translating their skills into professional success. In partnership with you, we are uniquely suited to equip the leaders of tomorrow to see themselves as global citizens with the ability to identify and address wide-ranging challenges. Our unwavering commitment to cultivate and sustain an academic community that engages diverse intellectual capacity and values inclusive excellence drives our work. This work would not be possible without you!

As a community, we have a duty to prepare students for careers with the potential to change hearts, minds, and the world. We invite to you to invest in Laney to prepare tomorrow’s leaders and shape the future of our school.

For Emory Day of Giving, we are highlighting these giving opportunities:

Laney Graduate School Diversity Gift Fund: Provides financial resources to enhance student-centric diversity efforts at Laney by enriching the community, developing outreach partnerships, creating an inclusive campus, and recruiting scholars from diverse backgrounds.

Graduate School Fellowship Support Fund: Ensures that all students of our community enjoy an enriching university experience by providing stipend support.

Laney Graduate School Professional Development Support Fund: Affords students opportunities to enhance their professional development by participating in conferences, conducting research, and more.

Master’s in Development Practice (MDP) Program Fund: Provides much needed financial support to recruit and retain top-tier MDP students, who work to address the most pressing challenges of our time in the face of global poverty, natural disasters, climate change, conflict and insecurity, and disease.

Laney Graduate School Fund for Excellence: Supports strategic priorities identified by the Dean that address immediate needs of the school.

Success!
