Studying from all over Germany

We have over 35 study locations across Germany plus the virtual campus. That way you can network with people from all over Germany.

Lecturers from the business world

You will learn from lecturers who have practical experience in their field and can discuss questions from your everyday working life with them.

Lessons in small groups

Overcrowded lecture halls? Not with us. We teach in small groups, which means you can actively participate and benefit from a greater learning effect.

Good chances of being taken on

IU is state-recognised and accredited. 2 out of 3 students are taken on by their practice partner after graduation.

Large network of practice partners

With our network of more than 15,000 practice partners, we will help you find the right company for your practice stages.
