We are proud to be an active participant in a variety of organizations and initiatives that support and promote women in business. You'll gain access to these and other organizations and resources that help get you there and support you along the way.

The Rosemary and John Brown Family Scholars Program is a $5 million scholarship endowment open to graduates of Spelman College and Agnes Scott College who are accepted into a Goizueta graduate program. Scholarships are merit-based. Brown Family Scholars admitted into any of Goizueta’s graduate programs will benefit from small-by-design program classes known for a collaborative culture and highly experiential learning model. This will help scholars to formally build camaraderie and continue with mentoring and networking during the remainder of their studies.

Goizueta is a proud partner of The FortĂ© Foundation and shares its vision and commitment to women in the workplace.

In your mentor, you'll find the voice of experience, a sounding board, and a perspective that helps expand your own.

The Center for Women at Emory helps Emory University provide the best possible environment for women as students, scholars, and employees.
