Frequently Asked Questions

IU is based in Germany; we have one campus in Berlin and another in Bad Honnef.

All our current study programmes are state-accredited and approved by the German Science Council and the state of Thuringia, and are in line with the European ECTS credits accreditation framework (the Bologna process). IU is also able to independently accredit new programmes in accordance with the legally defined quality standards of the German government, as we have been given the status of system accreditation. IU International is certified by FIBAA, assuring the quality of teaching and material. We are also listed on the European Quality Assurance Register (EQAR).

All of the degree programmes IU offers, are planned and monitored under strict conditions and adhere to both German academic standards and international ones, in line with the principles of the Bologna Process. This ensures that our degrees and the ECTS credits that graduates earn are internationally recognised. Some countries and professions might require additional accreditation processes. To assist you in such a case, we will be happy to issue a copy of the Europass Diploma Supplement, in English.

No, the certificate awarded only will mention the program of study and is of the similar content and format as the certificate being awarded to the regular on campus students. Your degree will look just like any other university degree.

By signing the contract, you formally acknowledge and accept IU’s terms of service. For us to successfully enrol you to study at IU, the first step is for us to be sure that you know and understand what you’re signing up for.

Online courses consist of video lectures, interactive learning material, access to online materials via the library, as well as online examination. You can access the materials 24/7 on mobile or PC via our online learning platform MyCampus. That way you can fit learning around your own schedule. You will also be able to interact with other students and your lecturers in case you have any questions. 

No. Your online studies are 100% flexible and are done whenever works for you. That includes the exams, too.

You only need a reasonably up-to-date PC (desktop or laptop) with a stable internet connection. Other internet-capable devices such as a tablet or smartphone can also assist you in your studies.

Yes, once you're registered as a student, you will also receive access to our online library, where you can search for an unlimited amount of journal articles and literature that can be downloaded in an e-book format.

Interactivity is a top priority for IU. This means that you will have numerous online learning materials at your disposal. The content of each course can vary to include video tutorials, podcasts, interactive PDFs, presentations, or e-books from our online library. We also stress the practical relevance of our teaching material by using case studies and reports from everyday work life. We also attach great importance to intensive exam preparation (e.g. through non-graded self-tests). 

Yes, you can exchange ideas with other students via our virtual campus.

Each course you take has a recurring Intensive Live Session – a live session with your instructor, where they’ll cover some of the course material in more details and answer any questions you might have. These take place usually once a month. These sessions are all recorded, and can be accessed whenever you want, via the digital campus.

Study time differs from candidate to candidate, depending upon individual’s academic ability and learning style. As a general guide, it is recommended to provision for about 12 to 15 hours of study per week, especially in the first year which involves coursework. Students who develop an effective learning style may require less effort to complete the prescribed curriculum. In the subsequent years the effort requirement would be commensurate with the extent of research being pursued.

If you study online, once you meet the exam requirements of a given course (e.g. passing non-graded self-tests), you can register for an exam at any time. Exam slots are available 24/7, 365 days a year. Our online exams are carried out and supervised by an external provider, with whom you’ll need to book a time slot in advance (at any time of day you would like). To take your exam, you will need to connect to the provider’s platform at the scheduled time, with either your laptop and an external webcam, or two digital devices (iPad and smartphone, for example) - one with which you’ll take the exam, and one which is set up so your keyboard, hands and face are visible from the side. This is required in order to ensure that you take the exam without using any external help, such as contact with other people or using notes.

The duration is determined by the ECTS credits earned through the course: - A 5 ECTS credits course means the exam is 90 minutes long. - A 10 ECTS credits course means the exam is 180 minutes long

The structure of the final exam depends on the course type and reflects the content of the course. In standard courses, the exam usually consists of approx. 50% open/ semi-open questions and 50% closed questions (e.g. multiple-choice, yes-no, matching questions). Other courses may require a different exam type such as case study, project-specific presentation, written assignment etc.

The results will be published three to six weeks (max.) after the examination date. You have three attempts; in other words, each exam you fail can be repeated twice.

You can take your exams whenever you feel ready. The quizzes are only a tool for you to test your knowledge, so you can find out how ready you are to take the final exam in your course.

The program fee includes your academic content and delivery including all live and synchronous sessions, online learning materials, videos, case studies, class exercises, simulations and assessment charges.

You may choose to opt out of this program and request for a refund any time before commencement vide an email. Your refund will be processed after deduction of processing charges of €225. No refund request will be considered or processed, once you have started the program and any amount paid will be forfeited.
