Accreditations, Rankings, and Memberships

With over 20 years of expertise, all IU programmes have been officially accredited by the German Accreditation Council. This certification attests to the fact that study programmes adhere to the most recent academic standards and are designed by qualified professionals. Since IU is system accredited, IU can independently accredit new programmes — in compliance with legally specified quality criteria – and adapt to market demands without sacrificing quality. IU is reaccredited for five years by the German Council of Science and Humanities in 2021. IU is a member of the European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR), which honours organisations that have proven to be highly compliant with a set of European quality assurance conventions. 

IU is recognized by WES Canada, a trusted non-profit providing education credential assessments (ECA) that are officially accepted by academic institutions, government bodies and employers throughout Canada. As an IU graduate, you'll be able to work or study in Canada as your degree can be converted into points according to Canadian academic standards in the Canadian Immigration Point System.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to study with us!
