A detailed map of Emory Campus can be found at:
http://www.map.emory.edu/mappdf/gis_map/MainCampus_ID.pdf
The new School of Medicine Building (referred to as the “Evans Medical Education & Research Building” on the map is # 1020 located on grid 7-8 A.
The “Emory Clinic Parking Deck” is #3250 on grid 8 I.
Enlarging the map to 125-150% makes it much easier to read.
The Clinical Skills Center is located on the 3rd floor. Please report to Room 308 when you arrive. The elevators are hidden in the back of the center wing of the building along with stairs which will go all the way to the 3rd floor. The most visible set of stairs only go to the 2nd floor so you’ll eventually need to find the elevator or stairs that go all the way up.
Room 316 is down a hallway between Rooms 310 and 320. When you start seeing exam rooms you’ll know you are close.
There is also an extensive free Emory shuttle system called “Cliff.” You can goggle “Emory Cliff shuttle” for all the locations and schedules. Parking on campus is always trying and time consuming. Taking the bus from a park and ride lot saves a lot of anxiety and wasted time and all the buses stop right in front of our building.
