Your rules. Your form of study.

These are your studies. That’s why you’ll decide for yourself what form you want them to take: a distance learning programme, a dual studies programme, or myStudium. With the right form of study for you, you can kickstart your future at IU International University of Applied Sciences without compromising.

The study programme that fits your lifestyle

Your studies must fit into your life. Not the other way around. We are firmly convinced of this, at IU – Germany's most renowned private university*!


That's why we offer you three different forms of study: You can either study in a particularly flexible distance learning programme, in a dual studies programme with a strong practical focus or in an individual myStudium programme. Each of these programmes adapts to your life and career aspirations so that you can learn and live!

How to study? Your different forms of study

A job, family and friends, hobbies and then studying on top of all that - it's often quite a lot at the same time. What does your everyday life look like? And how do your studies fit in? No matter what you want to juggle in life: with the right form of study, you can manage it easily.

MyStudium

Broaden your horizons along with your fellow students on the (virtual) campus and then chat over a (digital) coffee together.

You can do this at one of our study locations throughout Germany or online - and you’ll be able to decide it every semester.

Dual studies

Practical and top quality. IU’s dual study programme allows you to bridge the gap between theoretical courses at the local or virtual campus and practical work in a company. At the end of the programme, you'll have a degree and the necessary work experience to enter the job market with confidence. What about the tuition fees? They’ll be covered by your practice partner.
