The Lauder Business School (LBS) is an accredited Applied Science University based in Vienna, Austria that offers internationally recognized degrees – both undergraduate and graduate – in business administration. LBS is a growing institution catering to promising Jewish students not only from Europe, but also from all around the world. With English as the primary language of instruction, LBS offers a world-class business education which merges excellence in theoretical studies with “hands on” experience in modern business practice.

For Jewish young people from Eastern Europe whose parents and grandparents lived under communist regimes, our university offers a unique opportunity to reclaim their heritage and meet Jewish peers while preparing for an exciting business career in the world of a global market economy. The legacy of the ‘’Iron Curtain’’ left many Jewish families, even whole communities, lacking economic resources to enable their children to study at a Western university, and robbed them of their cultural heritage as Jews. LBS provides both a unique Jewish university community where these young people are immersed in Jewish life and also provides stipends to underwrite the high cost of room and Board in Vienna, making an education at the Lauder Business School possible.
