EBS London offered courses in the field of International Business Management and had a strong focus on Banking and Finance, reflected by the fact that a third of its graduates pursued a career in that field.[3] Besides its focus on teaching, the university had a long-standing commitment to research, offering MPhil and PhD degrees.[4]

Around 900 students from over 85 nationalities made the School highly international. It also had as strong focus on languages, with 70% of its graduates being fluent in at least four languages. EBS has a strong representation of all nations especially Russian, Spanish, Italian and French.[5][6]

History

Founded in 1979, European Business School was an international institution with campuses in London, Paris, Frankfurt (Oestrich-Winkel) and Milan which had a pioneering influence on the European model of education. In 1985, though still co-operating and exchanging students, the EBS schools became independent. Each school kept the EBS name but added the city name after. European Business School London (EBSL), EBS Universität für Wirtschaft und Recht and European Business School Paris are the remaining European Business Schools. EBS London was part of the business faculty of Regent's College London until it became Regent's University London in 2013.[7]

Programmes

Core of the undergraduate programme was the BA (hons) degrees in International Business. Further undergraduate courses at the business faculty included a BA (hons) in International Events Management.

Master's level courses were available in the fields of general management, banking and finance, entrepreneurship and marketing, including a full-time MBA in International Business.[8]

MBA Programme

The MBA in International Business was a 12-month full-time programme. The EBS London MBA has been validated by the EQUIS and AACSB accredited Open University as associated organisation.[9]

A compulsory study period abroad is an element of the course. EBS London MBA students can choose from the following partner universities:
