From 1997 to 2005, Eurasia International University (EIU) focused on laying the groundwork and establishing its presence in higher education in Armenia. During this period, it obtained its first licenses and achieved its initial state accreditation in 2002.

The second developmental stage, spanning from 2005 to 2015, witnessed EIU’s alignment with the European Credit Accumulation and Transfer System (ECTS) and the principles of the Bologna Action Plan. This period also saw the university securing institutional accreditation based on RA Government standards and beginning its journey towards internationalization, establishing exchange programs and launching third-level (PhD) programs.

Since 2013, EIU has offered PhD programs in various disciplines, further solidifying its academic offerings. Following the 2015 reaccreditation based on the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG), the university entered its third developmental stage, focusing on reform initiatives to address emerging challenges. This period marked significant progress in research infrastructure development, management system clarification, and acceleration of internationalization efforts.

In 2018, EIU achieved institutional accreditation for four years, distinguishing itself as one of the few accredited private universities in Armenia. Actively engaging with partner universities in the European Union (EU), EIU ensures the comparability of educational programs and promotes staff and student mobility, exemplified by its success in Erasmus+ projects.

Recognized as a dynamic and reputable educational institution in Armenia, EIU attracts a substantial cohort of international students drawn to its commitment to quality and innovation. Positioned as a pioneer in reforms, EIU coordinated the Erasmus+ ARMDOCT national project and co-coordinated the Erasmus+ T-GREEN project. Additionally, EIU boasts a unique Jean Monnet Chair in the RA university system and offers double degree programs with universities in Italy, Spain, and Poland.
