The Aarhus School of Business is a university in Aarhus, Denmark. It offers both undergraduate and graduate level studies in areas such as Business, Management, Economics, Language, and Law. On January 1st 2007 it became part of University of Aarhus.

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 1800s 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 it become the academic institution that it is known as today.

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

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

Departments: Department of Business Studies, Department of Language and Business Communication, Department of Economics, Department of Law, Department of Management, Department of Marketing and Statistics

Klubben

ASB is also known for its student bar/disco, Klubben, which basically means 'The Club'. On weekdays Klubben is the school's main socializing area, but on Thursday it's a different story. It's packed with students, and the atmosphere is amazing - cheap beers and drinks are of course a big plus. Klubben has the largest turnover in sales of alcohol of any club in Denmark on any given Thursday night. Check Out the website Klubben.dk for pictures from the Thursday in "klubben". Klubben is one of the business units of Studenterlauget, the one student union in Denmark with most people employed.
