"Our bachelor programme of business administration perfectly combines broad and classical modules and a high level of individual choices. In my opinion it is very important for each business student to deal with the core elements of economics and business administration to understand how companies work and how certain areas and functions with a business are linked. Moreover, professional life so more diverse than ever. That´s why we also included some elective modules for which you can choose from a wide range of topics. "

"At IU we do many things differently – focused on how you can get the most of our programmes so you can succeed in your job. For example, all of our professors have worked in industry for more than 5 years. This means that we bring both sides to the table – academic excellence and how to manage teams and projects in practice and how to go about all the little details that are important for delivering value to customers. We also move away from exams where you just learn to pass a grade – for example, our new master’s degree in AI has only two exams in the entire programme. Instead, we want you to focus on projects, assignments or building up a portfolio where you can showcase your work. You study your way – fully online."

"The M.A. International Management, which is offered in German and English, provides our students with a well-founded and at the same time specialized education in the field of international management and qualifies them to assume responsibility in a variety of fields of activity in internationally operating companies. My personal motivation for this field of study lies in my own international background. Being a Swiss of nationality, I have worked and lived for several years abroad in various parts of this world which sparkled my inspiration and broadened my global mindset."

Prof. Dr. Markus Prandini, International Management

"The master's program in Cyber Security enables students to work together in heterogeneous teams on an interdisciplinary basis. As generalists, they can use their knowledge to understand and evaluate complex issues and derive established solutions regarding IT security. Graduates draw on both scientific and practical expertise. The high flexibility in terms of time and location, the reconciliation of work, private life and studies and the variety of media-prepared teaching content make the IU distance learning program worthwhile."
