Export-Akademie Baden-Württemberg

Higher Education

Degree programs built around a career, not instead of one.

EABW partners with accredited universities to offer job-integrated higher education — degrees earned alongside real work experience and a salary, not in place of them.

Training and consulting for a shared world of tomorrow

Our Offerings

Two paths, one model

Every EABW higher education offering follows the same idea: study through a university partner, work through a partner company, and let the two run in parallel.

IN DEVELOPMENT

Coming Soon

Fellowship Master's Programs

A job-integrated fellowship for graduates who want a German Master’s degree without pausing their career — study at bbw Hochschule Berlin while employed by EABW under a two-year contract, working on projects with one of our partner companies.

One fellowship, three parties, one contract

EABW hires each fellow directly and manages the fellowship end-to-end, bbw Hochschule delivers the accredited Master’s degree, and a partner company hosts the two years of project work the fellowship is built around.

EABW

Your employer

Profile evaluation, candidate preparation, and a direct two-year employment contract — EABW hires each fellow itself.

BBW Hochschule

The Master’s degree

State-accredited, FIBAA-certified Master’s programs in Berlin, taught in English, built for working professionals.

Partner Company

The project, from day one

Fellows are deployed to work on real projects with a partner company for the full two years, alongside their studies.

How the fellowship works

Four steps, run jointly by EABW and the partner company, before a fellow starts their first semester.

1

Profile evaluation

EABW reviews your academic background, work experience, and career goals against the fellowship’s entry criteria and the current partner company openings.

2

Get-to-know interview

A personal conversation with EABW to understand your motivation, working style, and which Master’s program and partner company fit you best.

3

Technical interview

A technical, role-specific interview with the partner company to assess your fit for the project you’ll be assigned to during the fellowship.

4

Confirmation & contract

Once the partner company confirms project fit, EABW drafts your two-year employment contract, and you begin your Master’s while working on the partner’s projects and earning a salary.
