According to the independent, global U-Multirank 2019 university ranking, EBS Universität is one of the Global Top 25 Performers in Student Mobility with a strong international focus. U-Multirank, one of the world’s largest university rankings, is an initiative of the EU Commission and is conducted, inter alia, with the support of the Centre for Higher Education Development (CHE).

EBS Universität scores particularly highly in the category International Orientation, achieving the grade “very good” in four out of six sub-categories. In addition, EBS Universität was ranked among the Global Top 25 Performing Universities in Student Mobility. Relevant criteria for the result are an international student body and the opportunity for students to spend part of their studies abroad. In order to provide a complete picture of mobility and international exchange, U-Multirank considers both incoming and outgoing students for this list.

The Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes taught consistently in the English language, the integrated semesters abroad, the possibility of double degrees and the high cultural diversity of students and lecturers are an important part of EBS Universität. “Internationality is one of the most important aspects of studying at EBS Universität. For example, a semester abroad is a mandatory part of the Bachelor’s programme and law studies. Our aim is to familiarise students with international research approaches and teaching methods, to perfect language skills and to strengthen intercultural competence,” emphasises Prof. Dr. iur. Markus Ogorek, University President.

U-Multirank has been evaluating universities in the categories Teaching & Learning, Research, Knowledge Transfer, International Orientation and Regional Commitment since 2014. In the current, sixth edition of the ranking, 1,711 universities and colleges in 96 countries were examined and rated by experts.
