Being a relatively young university, having originated in 1998, the International University of Applied Sciences (IU) has had a keen interest in developing education in the digital world since its inception.
Earning accreditation from the German Council of Science and Humanities, and having been recognised as Germany’s biggest university, IU finds its physical locations in Bad Honnef and Berlin, Germany, but its reach extends far beyond Germany’s borders.
The institution is built upon creating globally accessible, and flexible learning for all who have access. Thus, IU gives its students the option to either enrol 100% online, or via a hybrid-learning option, which allows for both online and in-person instruction for students who would like the option to experience both forms. Additionally, students are also granted the chance to either enrol on a completely full-time, or part-time basis.
The online institute has consistently earned star ratings for its teaching from 4.2 stars moving upwards, which includes a full 5-star rating for online learning through the QS Stars Rating System. Courses are offered for undergraduate, master’s, and Master of Business Administration (MBA) degrees. The subjects available for study among the different degrees are divided as follows:

Additionally, students can go the extra mile and earn a UK validated degree, through the university’s dual degree programme. Working in partnership with London South Bank University (LSBU), IU has made it possible for students to study selected programmes that are both IU and LSBU validated, if they are willing to pay an extra fee.
This will ensure that the student is qualified for work internationally. Information about the dual degree option, as well as more general information can be found on the International University of Applied Sciences website here.
