History
CBS was established in 1917 by the Danish Society for the Advancement of Business Education (now known as FUHU), which is a private educational institution. In 1965 the business school became integrated as an institution of higher education in the Danish education system and today is regulated by the Danish Universities Act 2003.

Mission & strategy
International Orientation with Regional Anchoring
CBS regards itself as a European university and strives to be among the top business schools in Europe. Our research and teaching is structured in line with international standards, and we measure our level of quality in comparison with the top foreign universities.
CBS regards the Øresund Region as its natural home territory and is actively involved in co-operation across the Øresund within the framework of the Øresund University.

Partnership with the Business Community
Co-operation with Danish and foreign business communities is a cornerstone in our strategy. CBS develops study programmes that meet the needs of business executives and employees for lifelong learning. We also participate in application-orientated research collaboration in connection with our internationally-oriented basic research. This includes joint research projects, the CBS Partnership Program and the increasing number of new business research centres that perform research in collaboration with enterprises and organisations.
The Learning University
CBS seeks to provide a learning environment that focuses on learning and individualised skills development rather than teaching and mass education. At CBS, students are actively involved in the learning process, and new project and problem-based teaching methods are developed.
Among staff, we place emphasis on qualities such as innovative capability, flexibility, and the ability to gather and structure experience in the organisation. We achieve this partly through competence development, evaluations and an organisational culture that values experiments and risk-taking.
