Our curricula are developed in sync with corporate partners across borders and our teaching staff hail from an international network of like-minded universities.

We offer our students intense contact with the business world throughout their studies in the form of visiting lectures, regular informal meetups and internships. On average our graduates earn more than graduates from Tallinn University or University of Tartu, the large Estonian public universities.
• We are located in Tallinn, one of Europe's startup hot spots with ever-enhancing opportunities to find the right team, shape the right product, raise funds and take off with your idea.

• EUAS is a university for driven people who are after the next big thing.
