The Johns Hopkins University

The Johns Hopkins University opened in 1876 with the inauguration of our first president, Daniel Coit Gilman. He guided the opening of the university and other institutions, including the university press, the hospital, and the schools of nursing and medicine. The original academic building on the Homewood campus, Gilman Hall, is named in his honor. Daniel Coit Gilman set aside $7 million to establish a hospital and affiliated training colleges, an orphanage, and a university. At the time, it was the largest philanthropic bequest in U.S. history. “Our simple aim is to make scholars, strong, bright, useful, and true,” Gilman said in his inaugural address. In the speech, he defined the model of the American research university, now emulated around the globe. The mission he described then remains the university's mission today: To educate students and cultivate their capacity for lifelong learning, to foster independent and original research, and to bring the benefits of discovery to the world. After more than 135 years, we haven’t strayed from that vision. This is still a destination for excellent, ambitious scholars and a world leader in teaching and research. Distinguished professors mentor students in the arts and music, humanities, social and natural sciences, engineering, international studies, education, business, and the health professions. Those same faculty members, and their colleagues at the university's Applied Physics Laboratory, have made us the nation’s leader in federal research and development funding every year since 1979.
