We focus on management education — fostering both an entrepreneurial attitude as well as responsible leadership.
Teaching is focused on practice-oriented work whenever possible: thus, case studies and practical projects are frequently used in class in order to foster the application of theoretical concepts. WHU highly values the personal development of each individual. Students are challenged to reflect on their soft and leadership skills and to work on personal development. As a result, WHU aims to provide a high-quality intellectual contribution to both academia and the business world.

WHU offers excellent study opportunities for people of any age and with a wide range of work experience.

This way, WHU contributes to and supports lifelong learning experiences.
To determine whether applicable quality standards are met, WHU has also implemented several internal quality monitoring mechanisms, such as 'Assurance of Learning' (AOL). In order to assure continuous improvement of curricula, student learning is continuously monitored and assessed. Furthermore, WHU has its own Instructor Evaluation System (DOBES), which allows every student to evaluate their instructors at the end of every course. Student feedback is collected on several occasions: in the bi-weekly jour fixe of student representatives and the Dean, in annual feedback meetings between the students and the Academic Director of the respective program, and in exit surveys that are filled out by the graduates of each program at the end of their course of study.
