Welcome to European-American University

"Experience is both law and method of all tuition, all influence." - Amos Bronson Alcott, Orphic Sayings

With considerable expertise at its disposal, today European-American University brings together the best of the European and American educational traditions. As a sustainable institution strongly committed to the advancement of the human condition, the University delivers its programs using highly flexible academic methods anchored firmly in historic and legal precedent. Two main modes of study are available. Distance learning programs use the approach of mentored study and require no residency whatsoever. In addition, the University has a growing network of affiliated partner campuses offering residential and mixed-mode study options leading to EAU awards throughout Africa and in Asia.

As a private, non-traditional institution the University's outlook is radically different from that of many mainstream universities. Its individualized model of education is based on real-world values that are directly relevant to your life and aspirations, creating a uniquely forward-looking profile within contemporary higher education. The University is directed by the Society for Humanistic Potential (SHP), a religious organization whose philosophy honors lifelong learning as a key aspect of the holistic development of the individual. Persons of all creeds and none are admitted to the University's programs.

The University is particularly suited to accommodating the mature, experienced candidate who is seeking to capitalize on their professional competencies in order to gain an academic qualification. You may be returning to study after some time away, or continuing your education for professional and personal benefit. Either way, you will find us efficient, direct and with the necessary expertise to help you achieve your goals. You can start and finish at any time of the year, working at your own pace and with no unnecessary bureaucracy. We welcome your visit to our website, and look forward to hearing from you.

Degree Programs Available
The University awards degrees at Associate, Bachelor, Master and Doctor levels, in a wide variety of fields with particular strengths in business (including marketing, human resources, entrepreneurism and project management), the humanities and theology. It uses uniquely individualized learning methodologies that empower and honor students as the center of their learning processes, and does not place artificial barriers in the way of the assessment of learning. This allows the student to determine the nature and context of learning experiences that can count for degree assessment. The available learning modes include Oxbridge-style mentored taught coursework programs, as well as assessment by portfolio of prior experiential learning, dissertation, independent mentored study, and self-designed programs offering a combination of assessment styles. Flexible classroom-based study is also on offer via our affiliated partner campuses.

Learn while you earn
We believe that you learn best when you're working as well. Our program is designed so that you can use what you learn at work and design the program around your working environment. You stay in your job, you continue earning and you apply what you have learned through the program directly. As a result, you'll often complete the program more quickly than in traditional institutions.

Earn credit for what you know
We privilege your existing learning. You can transfer in previous university-level courses and certain other types of evidenced prior learning to the program. It is possible to earn a complete degree at bachelor's level, and up to 60% of a master's or doctorate through prior learning assessment (APEL).

You're in control
We're here to guide and support, not impose or impede. You are in the driving seat; we're there to help. You can design your program individually, decide on its resources, implement and analyse it. We may suggest a structure (and indeed offer the option of more "traditional" taught programs) but we are open to all reasonable alternatives that are compatible with good academic practice.

Staff/student ratio of 1:1
Yes, you read that correctly. In our distance learning programs, we use the approach of mentored study: one student, one teacher - the oldest academic system known to mankind, and one that is only otherwise available at the most expensive and exclusive universities. There is no system of compulsory group participation or assessment because the program is tailored directly to you as an individual.
