CBS was founded in 1993 as a pure business school and is characterized by a wide range of English-language study programs. It was amongst the first universities in Germany to offer the internationally recognized Bachelor'sBachelor's degree.

The task of CBS is to prepare students for career opportunities in business. That is why both the current state of research and strong practical relevance are vital parts of the courses.
