> I completed my Master’s in International Management from IU, and it was truly a remarkable experience. One of the standout aspects of the university is its exceptional faculty. I had the opportunity to learn from highly knowledgeable professors who went beyond traditional classroom teaching. They enriched our learning by organizing insightful field trips, engaging guest lectures, and hands-on workshops, all of which deepened our understanding of real-world business dynamics.

### Vivien Son

CEO - Alumni Award in the Professional Success Category

“I find the distance learning course to be 100 percent flexible and tailored precisely to my life model. IU has also grown and evolved. Of course, there is still room for improvement, but when it came down to it, I could count on IU.”

### Rita Schmidt

Head of Quality & Management Systems - Professional Success Award for an Exceptional Career

"Especially as a young single mother, it was not possible for me to choose the first educational path. However, I'm a fighter and I wanted to show myself personally that I too can have a career and a bachelor's degree. After intensive research I came across the IU. The distance learning concept at IU was made for me: learning when, where and how I wanted. No fixed times, the exams are flexible and there are locations everywhere for taking the exams".

### Nina Schwarting

Senior Manager Digital Learning - Digital Education Development Award for the Further Development of the Digitisation of Education

“Thanks to the IU international university, I was able to combine study and work and, in most cases, always apply what I had learned directly. The practical relevance, especially because of the casework, was particularly exciting for me. I also really enjoyed working in peer groups, because I was able to meet great people from completely different professional fields and got to know new approaches through working together.”
