Who will make a difference in the economy and the world in the future? The professionally proficient? The diligent? Or those people with personality?
At EBS, we attach significant importance to giving our students an all-embracing education, with innovative learning methods, coaching and teaching values unparalleled in the German university landscape.
From theory to practice. And back.
Our didactic method of challenge-based learning is simple: right from the start of your study programme, you work together with our corporate partners. You start with an onboarding project, a social impact challenge, in which you work with a corporate partner to address challenges with the necessary foresight. At the end of the week, you compete in your teams and present your work.
A strong community. Networking among each other and with partners.
Small class sizes mean you learn with and from each other right from the start. Together you go on field trips to well-known companies and experience high-profile leadership talks. Extracurricular activities and cultural events also offer the opportunity to network and make friends outside of your studies.
Don't leave your career to chance, leave it to our Career Services Center.
Here, we work together with a large number of employers from the business community. This includes fireside chats with potential employers, career fairs and individual consulting, training the relevant talent sets and mentorship.

Make more of yourself. A lot more.
We know that knowledge alone does not count in leadership positions, so we focus on further developing your skills as a leader with our experienced Coaching and Leadership Hub. Personal development and individual career coaching are an integral part of the curriculum. Because only those who inspire others can make a difference in the world.
To the Coaching and Leadership Hub
Our MBA students excel in diversity and assume leadership positions in various fields after graduation. Be it IT, consulting, engineering or founding start-ups.
EBS graduates join renowned companies such as McKinsey, BCG, Roland Berger, Accenture, KPMG, Deloitte, PWC, LinkedIn, EY, Capgemini and Mercedes Trucks.
Success with our partners.
Numerous corporate partners support and accompany students during their time at EBS Universität. These include many well-known DAX-listed corporations, owners of medium-sized companies, NGOs and business law firms. With the help of our partners, we provide an ideal mix of theory and practice.
Our claim to impart knowledge and values has proved successful.
This is underpinned by a strong network of over 12,000 alumni, many of whom work in top business positions. With more than 4,000 members, our Alumni Association is always there to support you during and after your studies. As you can see - we are a very big family.
The EBS full-time MBA offered me extensive practical experience working with my fellow students. The diversity in terms of knowledge, cultures and personal background, helped me a lot to develop as a personality.
A unique start to your studies.
Jump straight in at the deep end with the Social Impact Challenge during the MBA Onboarding Week. You will work on a real-life case study for a local company with your fellow students. At the end of the week, you compete in your teams and present your work.
One study programme, three options
The full-time MBA emphasizes business analytics, business activity, business innovation, as well as language skills.
EBS prepares you for the next step in your career. Managerial labor market trends including skill and competency needs of businesses are analyzed including state-of-the-art techniques of talent selection & development. Professional coaches support each student in the alignment of career goals to personal strengths. Personal branding and interviews skills are trained with HR professionals individually. MBA leadership talks, company visits, and field trips nurture the self-esteem experience.
You understand to reflect on your leadership identities and begin to develop your own personal development plan on the journey to becoming an effective leader. This is undermined by the theoretical and behavioural foundations of leading individuals, teams and organisations. You will be able to critically assess and respond to different managerial and leadership dilemmas and prioritize stakeholder demands and needs. Key theories related to managing diversity and ethics and sustainability are developed and how those can be implemented.
Digitisation, mechanisation and globalisation are driving disruptive change in business and society. Of course, topics such as Big Data, Business Analytics and Performance Management play a crucial role in the EBS full-time MBA programme. In this field of study you learn not only the key tools and methods of data analysis but also, based on the findings, how to make the right decisions and identify new business opportunities.
In-depth knowledge in Strategic Management, Operations, Supply Chain Management and Marketing are essential to successfully plan and operate corporate processes. We provide you with modern methods and tools to align your actions with long-term success. Simulations and business games complement the theoretical basics in these study modules.
We provide you with optimum preparation for increasingly unpredictable developments. What sounds like a contradiction is part of the programme: The MBA programme teaches you how to react flexibly to incalculable factors and use them for your entrepreneurial purposes. You will learn to design, pursue, and continuously improve future strategies. You assimilate, including in a business field study, how tomorrow's business models must be thought through and developed. And you identify how established businesses can remain successful in fast-changing times.
We offer German, Chinese, English, French and Spanish language courses. You take a very close look at the respective everyday and professional worlds, acquire business-fluent language skills and learn about cultural characteristics. The courses can be taken parallel to your actual studies and serve as a basic door opener to the desired job market.

AACSB accreditation
AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) is a global not-for-profit organisation that brings together educators, students and businesses to achieve a common goal: to educate the next generation of leaders. Since 1916, AACSB has stood for the highest standards of quality, providing quality assurance, business education information, and learning and development services worldwide.
Wissenschaftsrat
In 2022, EBS Universität was reaccredited by Wissenschaftsrat, the German Council of Science and Humanities, for the next 5 years.
This academic seal of quality is awarded to non-governmental universities whose performance in teaching and research meets recognised scientific standards. The period of accreditation by the Wissenschaftsrat is for a maximum of ten years, depending on the outcome of the review process. The Wissenschaftsrat is one of Germany’s most critical science policy advisory bodies and advises the federal and state governments on developing universities, science and research. In the multi-stage accreditation procedure, which includes the submission of a self-report by the university and a visit to the university by an external group of experts over several days, the university is evaluated in eight key areas. These include its academic quality in research and teaching, its structures and equipment, and its quality assurance and development.
Stiftung Akkreditierungsrat
All study programmes at EBS Universität are accredited by the Accreditation Council and are reviewed regularly in cooperation with the accreditation agency FIBAA.
The superordinate Foundation Akkreditierungsrat is an association of the German federal states aiming for quality assurance in learning and teaching at German universities. Since 2018, following the conversion of the German accreditation process, the Akkreditierungsrat has focused on the decision of accreditations. These are based on reviews of the accreditation agencies on programme accreditations as well as system accreditations. Thus, the Akkreditierungsrat plays an essential role in the final evaluation of the respective study programme. The Accreditation Council only accepts expert reports from accreditation agencies that have the EQAR registration of the Accreditation Council. The degree programmes at EBS Universität have been assessed by FIBAA, which is notably recognised in business and economics.
FIBAA accreditation
The accreditation agency Foundation for International Business Administration Accreditation (FIBAA) awards the seal to study programmes. This distinction provides prospective students, graduates, universities, and the job market with reliable information about the quality of the degree programme.
