Yasodara
Partial scholarship holder "Women in Tech" in Architecture
"Through my "Women in Tech" partial scholarship at IU, I now have the opportunity to be one of the ambitious women making my way in tech. I can study - no matter when, where, how or with whom - regardless of time and place, and write an online exam at any time."
Dennis
Distance learning in Social Work
"After some initial hesitation, I contacted IU and immediately decided to take a four-week trial course. This way, as a visually impaired student, I was able to directly put IU distance learning programme through its paces in terms of compatibility and accessibility. I was overwhelmed by the study concept, the multimedia learning formats and the possibility to complete the study programme including exams 100% online."
Selina
Distance learning in Business Administration
"It is not always easy to reconcile family, studies and work. But good planning and the flexibility at IU make it possible. I think, especially as a woman and mother, it is important nowadays to remain independent and to set an example to your own children that you also want to continue your education as a mum, and thus be a role model for them."
Felicia
Distance learning in Social Work
"My studies at IU allow me to study at my pace and according to my health condition. Missed deadlines are not a problem as everything is recorded. Also, the support from tutors or the student secretariat is absolutely straightforward."
