Brand University of Applied Sciences: List of all English-taught study programs (2026/27)

Founded in 2010, the Brand University of Applied Sciences (BU) in Hamburg is a private institution that specializes exclusively in brand management, marketing, and communication. Approximately 950 students are enrolled in its bachelor's and master's programs, which focus on brand management, brand design, and international brand communication. Its niche positioning as Germany's only university dedicated entirely to branding attracts students from over 25 countries to its small campus near the Elbe River. There, classes of 15–20 students work on real client projects from companies such as Beiersdorf, Lufthansa, and Montblanc as part of the curriculum.
