Mission Aarhus School of Business, Aarhus University contributes added value to society through research, education and dialogue on companies and organisations and their surroundings. Together with the rest of Aarhus University, we develop knowledge, welfare and culture through research and research-based education, dissemination and consulting.
Vision ASB wants to be a leading, international business school. ASB wants to develop and transform knowledge and ideas, that creates sustainable growth through innovation for the benefit of students, companies, organisations and society.
20 09 An international business school We strive to rank highly as an international business school in terms of both research and education. We wish to integrate internationalisation in all the activities conducted at ASB. Twenty-six per cent of the faculty is made up of non-Danish faculty members. We publish in international journals and collaborate with a large number of international companies. ASB offers a complete Englishlanguage study programme at both undergraduate, graduate and PhD level. We collaborate with more than 200 international universities on offering our students exchange opportunities. Moreover, we have entered into several double degree collaboration agreements. Nine hundred international degree students from 80 countries are currently taking undergraduate or graduate degrees at ASB. Four hundred international students are doing an exchange at ASB, while 360 Danish students are studying abroad with our partners worldwide.
6 Departments Special focus for our development All the current global crises demand closer collaboration between the world’s universities and societies. Instead of focusing on blind growth with profit as the highest goal, there is a need to foster intelligent growth and innovation. This means that we are making targeted efforts to invest in and develop economically sustainable companies, technologies and solutions which can minimise the effects of major crises. For this to happen, companies, organisations and society at large must be able to look at the bigger picture and handle a complex world. ASB wants to contribute to this development by focusing on growth, innovation and sustainability.
