Anglo-American University (AAU) is the oldest private higher education institution in the Czech Republic. Founded in 1990, the non-profit university offers an array of unique and distinguished undergraduate and graduate programs. Its faculty and staff are as characteristically international as its student body, the latter includes nationals from over 60 countries.The university's continuing mission has been "to provide a personalized, distinctive university education in English, upholding the best American and British academic traditions to train future leaders, citizens of the globe, and high profile individuals engaged in world affairs."
In addition to its own accreditation by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic, AAU has fostered cooperation and study exchanges with universities abroad, resulting, for example, in the ability to award its bachelor's and master's of law graduates with a degree from the University of London. Beginning in 2008, Chapman University, home of Vernon L. Smith, winner of the 2002 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics, has awarded its AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) accredited degree to AAU's MBA graduates.
