About EU Business School (Munich campus)

Established in 1973, EU Munich is a triple-accredited, multicampus, international business school. In addition to small, dynamic classes offered in English, EU Munich students also enjoy an international environment while getting the best of both North American and European academic curricula.

We offer various programs at the Business Foundation, bachelor’s (BBA/BA/BSc), master’s (MBA/MSc) and doctoral (DBA) levels, both onsite and online, in majors such as Business Administration; Communication & Public Relations; Leisure & Tourism Management; Business Finance; Business Marketing; Sports Management; International Relations; International Business; Entrepreneurship; and E-Business.

The EU Group has a global network of campuses, and we encourage students to participate in exchange opportunities within the EU Group in Barcelona, Geneva, Montreux and Munich, and with partner institutions in U.S.A., China, U.K., Thailand, Malaysia, Taiwan, Mexico, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Canada and Russia among others.

We continuously explore affiliation opportunities with world-class universities. These give students the opportunity to participate in programs with the University of Roehampton in London and the University of Derby and earn U.K. state-recognized degrees on our campuses. Partnerships with Shinawatra University in Bangkok, Pace University in New York and the University of California, Riverside, among others, offer students the chance to study a further qualification in diverse and enriching environments.

All courses are taught by highly-qualified faculty members with a wealth of practical experience in their fields. Our faculty works with students on an individual basis to create a cooperative and caring learning environment in which human values flourish. The Career Services Department helps students to build contacts while looking for internships and job opportunities and the Alumni Association provides them with an extensive network of contacts worldwide upon graduation.

Both agencies and owners usually require the first month’s rent plus a deposit in advance. Most agencies also charge an additional month’s rent as their fee. Other deposits may also be required, but never more than three months’ rent.
