    In vogue: Studying at the HHL Campus in Leipzig

    Leipzig is open, international and vibrant. Located at the crossroads of historic European trade routes, Leipzig prides itself on its 1,000-year tradition of commercial vitality and its reputation as a meeting place for science and the arts. Beyond its modern infrastructure, what makes Germany’s fastest-growing city so popular and dynamic is its rapidly expanding economy, housing world-famous brands such as Porsche, BMW, DHL and Amazon. HHL, the first “Handelshochschule” in German-speaking Europe, was established back in 1898 and therefore laid the foundation for Leipzig’s profound management education early on.

    Parks, cafés, bars, clubs and lakes invite you to enjoy a welcome break from your studies. Plus, Berlin and all that it has to offer are just one hour away. And the best of it all? Living expenses in Leipzig are affordable for students and there are a large variety of accommodations in all price ranges.

    Benefit from HHL’s global network

    HHL offers not only an academic degree from one of the most renowned and venerable business schools but also an invaluable global network of experts, classmates and supporters. It is where important business contacts and lifelong friendships are established.

    Our alumni are particularly active and closely linked. They are represented in over 70 countries. HHL alumni include renowned founders as well as many leading executives from major consulting firms and international enterprises. Our alumni support each other and future graduates in many different ways. But there’s even more: Many of them often return to campus to share their knowledge with the latest HHL generation in presentations or workshops or directly recruit people for their company.

    Apply now and invest in your career

    For the part-time MBA program, we strive for a class structure that represents a variety of cultures, nationalities, individual interests and professional backgrounds. We, therefore, attach great importance to a careful and personal selection process. In addition to your academic background, we also pay attention to your professional career to date, your personality, motivation and career ambitions.

Within two weeks of submitting your application, you will find out if you have been selected for a personal admission interview with an HHL professor. The interview will be conducted either on Skype or directly at HHL.

Our advice: The earlier you apply, the sooner you will learn about our decision and can plan your next steps!
