ASB’s history

On September 15 2004, Aarhus School of Business (ASB) celebrated its 65th anniversary.

However, ASB’s predecessor, The Jutland Business School (Den Jyske Handelshøjskole, DJH), has a somewhat more extensive history. Already in the late 1800’s DJH provided business programmes to young people from Jutland who wished to take an education within business, economics and trade. Only when ASB was founded in 1939 did we become the academic institution that we are known as today.

Since the founding of ASB more than 65 years ago, we have grown and kept growing. In 1968 ASB moved from the original location down town Århus to the yellow buildings which since then have provided the setting for the outstanding research and teaching ASB stands for.

Today we are an EQUIS accredited business school, we have more than 7,000 students (a significant number of which are international students) and about 450 employees.
