East West University occupies a modern academic facility in Chicago's South Loop neighborhood, situated in the city's educational corridor near several other higher education institutions. Founded in 1980 as a private, non-profit institution, the university focuses on providing career-oriented undergraduate education to a diverse urban student population. The university offers programs primarily in business administration, computer science, and behavioral sciences, with emphasis on practical skills development and professional preparation.
