DUAL STUDIES
YOUR STUDY PROGRAMME? DUAL.YOUR CAREER OPPORTUNITIES? TWICE AS HIGH.
You want to gain work experience and study at the same time? In the dual study program at the IU International University (IU), both are possible! You combine theory and practice optimally with each other - without compromise.
Advantages of your dual study programme at the IU
- Interlocking theory and practice
Study, work and leisure - with us you can combine everything: thanks to regular alternation between theory and practice. You always apply what you have learned directly in the practical phases - this makes it much easier and faster for you to understand course content.
- Teaching at the highest level
The IU offers you an excellent dual study programme with which you can look forward to a promising future: 2 out of 3 students are taken on by their practice partner after graduation. Our degree programmes are accredited and state-recognised.
- Private dual studies for €0
Private study sounds expensive? At IU you pay €0 - because your practice partner pays your tuition fees.
- No Numerus Clausus
Motivation cannot be measured with grades - that's why we deliberately do without an NC. Instead, we find out together where your talents and strengths lie.
- 10.000+ Practice Partners
We offer you extensive support in your search for a practice partner. We draw on our network of more than 10,000 practice partners in a wide range of industries throughout Germany or support you in your application to other companies.
- Learning in small groups
Overcrowded lecture halls? Not with us! You study in small groups and in a personal atmosphere. Within this, you can ask questions at any time, actively participate and benefit from a greater learning effect.
