WHU & Digitalization
Since the inception of WHU, breaking the mold and looking towards the future has been an integral part of the school’s pioneering attitude and identity.
Alongside WHU’s key characteristics of performance, practical relevance, international exposure, and personal development, technology plays a key role in driving its position as a top German business school.
At the forefront of trends, research, and developments, WHU ensures that it consistently contributes intellectually, in methodology, and to thought leadership focused on digital themes. WHU enriches face-to-face learning with digital means and tools to offer the best learning experience for students.
WHU & Entrepreneurship
The WHU start-up scene is a constant hive of activity - from Germany to America, and everywhere in between, entrepreneurial spirit and creative thinking truly make up the heart of WHU.
Students are more than ever interested in entrepreneurial activities, either by starting their own venture or within a corporate setting by developing technology, novel products, and services.
From those with start-up ideas at the ready to those who haven’t entertained the idea of starting their own business, WHU has something for everybody. A mix of events scattered throughout the year reflects our entrepreneurial drive, and with many student clubs devoted entirely to entrepreneurship, you can take your creative thinking out of the classroom and into the world. With plenty of start-ups originating from WHU alumni, you have the unique opportunity to learn from the best at WHU.
Jakob Rauber (CEO & Co-Founder EISZEIT)
"My time at WHU has not only strengthened my desire to start a business, but has also taught me many skills that help me enormously in the strategic orientation of EISZEIT. I am very grateful for this opportunity and I always enjoy coming back to Vallendar for events!"

WHU & Female Leadership
WHU offers meaningful and evidence-based education to enable everyone including those groups who have been underrepresented for a long time in leadership positions – such as women – to unfold their full potential.
Yet, as scientific evidence indicates that reaching leadership roles is often more difficult for female high potentials, WHU developed specific initiatives and offers targeted activities that seek to support female future leaders.
Mirja Gerlach
"Female leadership for me means the recognition and awareness of one's own abilities and competencies. A healthy self-image of one's own strengths with clear, comprehensible directives."
