BENEFITS OF PART-TIME STUDIES

Under the guidance of experienced lecturers with practical experience, you will work on real case studies and develop skills that are in demand in everyday working life.

Our study programmes are not only state-recognized and accredited, they are always up to date with the latest research.

On two evenings a week you will deepen your knowledge in close exchange with your lecturers and fellow students.

Waiting for the semester to start? You don't have to with us, because in part-time studies you start exactly when you are ready. You can start your studies any day. So you are not tied to fixed semester starts and remain as flexible as possible in your job or privately.

Do you have stress at work or do you need time for your family? Switch flexibly between the combination model with face-to-face courses and complete online studies: You then study 100% online, when and where you want. At the same time, you benefit from virtual exchange opportunities with your lecturers and fellow students. In this way, your studies are compatible with your everyday life in every situation.

Early bird or night person? It doesn't matter, because you should also remain flexible when it comes to exams. Take exams directly on campus on a specific date or online at any time. With the 24/7 offer, you decide yourself when and where you are ready for an exam, whether in the late evening or abroad.

Whether you have completed your advanced training, have professional experience or have an additional qualification - you can easily have your previous achievements verified and recognised. This gives you the possibility to skip individual modules or entire semesters and save a lot of time and money.

Did you know that you can claim the costs of part-time studies in the income tax return? In addition to tuition fees, this also includes the purchase of learning materials and commuting tickets. This way you can reduce your study costs by up to 42%.

As a student, you also benefit from numerous advantages, for example, with popular providers such as Amazon Prime or Microsoft. You receive a cheaper Prime trial membership and are entitled to the Office 365 package and all Adobe benefits during your studies.

Studying online means you can learn whenever and wherever you want. Thanks to the online learning portal, you can access scripts, Interactive Books® and learning videos at any time. You can also take exams online 24/7. Furthermore, you can always stay in contact with your fellow students and lecturers via our platforms and networks - so you are guaranteed not to miss a thing.

The future of learning is digital and always on the move - just like IU Learn, our free app for students. With IU Learn you can read scripts, watch learning videos or answer test questions anywhere and anytime. As a smart learning buddy, she teaches you every lesson in short units that you can easily incorporate into your everyday life. She notes your learning progress and guides you successfully through your studies.

If you want more in your job, you usually need a specific qualification, a decisive upgrade. This is the only way to advance on the career ladder successfully. The IU trend study shows that majority of our graduates were able to take on more management responsibility after their studies.

Studies pay off – today more than ever! Because gaining further professional qualifications is rewarded in almost every industry: more than 60% of our IU graduates benefit not only from better job prospects, but also a significantly higher salary after graduation.

Only when you are ready to go new ways in life, you can realise big projects and realise your potential. By starting part-time studies, you have the opportunity to reorient yourself professionally or to improve your skills. This will bring you a decisive step closer to your goals and dreams.
