Variety is the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavour.
William Cowper's poem, The Task (1785)
IU International University is committed to mainstreaming diversity and gender equality in the decision-making processes of the University in all areas and at all levels and to realising this objective in an all-encompassing manner.
For IU International University of Applied Sciences, promoting diversity among the University's students and employees means not only increasing the number of female students or professors and lecturers, but also addressing the needs of people with disabilities or other underrepresented groups and taking appropriate measures if necessary.
Equal opportunities are understood as an interdisciplinary task and are taken into account in all the University's projects.
We show the great importance that diversity has within the IU International University of Applied Sciences and institutionalise what we really live. The idea of diversity is and always has been part of the organisation and shapes our working and study culture.
We strive to adapt the study opportunities according to demand.
The Student Registrar's Office (Studierendensekretariat) will be happy to help you adjust your study times at any time.
The Examinations Office (Prüfungsamt)is available to help you with any questions concerning compensatory mechanisms in place for individual impairments.
