Since its inception in 2003, European-American University has constantly challenged and reinvented the concept of the university for the twenty-first century.

EAU is a diverse partnership of over thirty affiliated campuses throughout sub-Saharan Africa and in Asia, together with an online graduate school offering uniquely flexible programs at the masters and doctoral levels and several active research centers. Throughout, EAU is dedicated to a vision of education that places the learner at the heart of their own educational process. Our graduates join a highly select group of alumni that includes royalty, senior government officials, church and business leaders from around the world.

"EAU as an institution is one of the foremost Universities in the world, with enviable record in academic performance and has produced great and mighty graduates for several years. EAU University graduates are known in various fields for excellence and integrity."
Professor Victor Ojeniyi, Vice-Chancellor, Evangel Christian University (Nigeria)
