==Campuses==
The Homewood campus has been the base for most undergraduates since 1916. It is located in Northern Baltimore on a former farm.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.jhu.edu/life/campuses/homewood/|title=Homewood Campus|date=July 27, 2016|accessdate=July 27, 2016}}</ref> As the need for more housing and dining facilities increased beyond what could be built on Homewood, the University acquired the site of the former Memorial Stadium to build additional housing there.
Johns Hopkins has three other campuses in Baltimore: the East Baltimore campus houses the schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Public Health as well as the Johns Hopkins Hospital; the Peabody campus, site of the Peabody Institute, the nation's oldest conservatory; and Harbor East campus, on Baltimore's inner harbor has the Carey Business School.
The School of Advanced International Studies has campuses in Washington, DC; Bologna, Italy; and Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sais-jhu.edu/graduate-studies/campuses/washington-dc#washington-campus|title=About the Washington Campus|date=July 27, 2016|accessdate=July 27, 2016}}</ref>
In addition, in Laurel, Maryland, the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory is a 453 acre site with 5,600 employees that conducts defense-related research.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.jhuapl.edu/aboutapl/heritage/default.asp|title=Our History|accessdate=July 27, 2016}}</ref>
