EBS University
Pioneering practical, international teaching
EBS University was founded by Professor Klaus Evard in 1971 as the European Business School.
His vision:
“My aim was to offer students an international education in close collaboration with corporate partners.”
Professor Klaus Evard
An approach that revolutionised the university landscape.
Vision and values: knowledge with values is invaluable
We firmly believe that the challenges facing our society and our world need people who are guided by values. What matters to us is courage, responsibility, consideration and backbone.
We train the leaders of the future
We do so using: the very latest teaching methods, a Coaching & Leadership Hub dedicated to strengthening leadership skills, and our project-based teaching approach called challenge-based learning – supported by numerous partners in the field. This empowers our students to get the best from themselves and equips them to change the world.
