A Distinctive Global Position
EBS Universität is the only German member of the Law Schools Global League (LSGL). As one of the founding members of the LSGL, established on 21 June 2012, EBS is part of a select group of leading law schools worldwide committed to advancing global legal education through collaboration and innovation.
Global Perspectives and Practical Experience
True to the EBS commitment to international education, EBS students spend a semester abroad at one of its 90 partner universities worldwide. This integral part of the curriculum enhances students’ understanding of different legal systems and cultures, enriching their legal expertise and comparative law skills.
Practical relevance is at the heart of the teaching philosophy, known as Challenged-Based-Learning. Through a close network in the business world, real projects are developed with corporate partners, which our students then work on. Professors change from lecturers to mentors who accompany group work and provide assistance at the right moment. In this way, students consolidate their knowledge. EBS Law School ensures that every student benefits from individual coaching, practical training, and personal development courses, setting the stage for confident, well-rounded legal professionals who are ready to interact with global business leaders.
EBS Law School is consistently ranked at the top of its field, and its graduates consistently win the highest honours in the state of Hesse.
A New Era at Campus Rheingau
In line with the ethos of continuous improvement and adaptation, EBS is excited to announce the upcoming relocation of the law faculty to the newly renovated Campus Rheingau. What has always belonged together in terms of content (law and business) is now growing together in terms of space. Set to be completed by 2025, this move marks a significant enhancement in the infrastructure:
Modern Learning Environments: Interactive lecture rooms equipped with state-of-the-art technology, flexible workspaces, and a variety of learning zones cater to every student’s needs, from quiet study to collaborative projects.
Vibrant Campus Life: The redesigned park with vineyards and seating areas celebrates the Rheingau region’s charm, alongside new structures like the orangery for sports and socializing, ensuring a balanced, enriching student life.
Historic Meets Contemporary: The main castle building and annexes are undergoing extensive modernization, promising a future-ready educational setting that embodies the ‘EBSpirit’ in every corner.
