Johns Hopkins University

The first major research university to be founded in America, Johns Hopkins is committed to a fundamental principle education for undergraduates and graduates must be firmly grounded in research and discovery.  In this spirit, Hopkins students have pursued a path of exploration, creation, and invention ever since its founding in 1876; currently over 70% of undergraduates conduct meaningful research here, either independently or under the guidance of world-renowned faculty.Students not only build a classical foundation of knowledge in their studies, they learn directly from the cutting-edge work being conducted on campus and in the field. Critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, and entrepreneurship are all fostered and nourished in this unique educational environment. With approximately 4000 undergraduates on campus, Hopkins provides unparalleled opportunities for students to become involved in projects and to receive an extraordinary amount of personal attention.  Indeed, students at Hopkins have the freedom to create their own paths.  They are supported in their objectives by faculty and staff who recognize students as colleagues and important contributors to the academic community that is The Johns Hopkins University.
