The curriculum has multiple facets that reflect this, for example, the inclusion of internship semesters, discussions and lectures with experts from industry and excursions to companies.

Many of the benefits of studying at the IUBH are possible due to the close cooperation that the IUBH and its faculty maintain with industry. Our faculty has contact to all DAX 30 companies, is recognised on the international market and well connected in a network of over 3.000 business partners.

IUBH Graduates are in high demand on the job market. The results of our survey of graduates speak for themselves: 94 percent of our graduates find a job within the first three months and after two years 80 percent already have management responsibilities.

These excellent results are basing on the fact that, in addition to teaching professional expertise, we focus on training social and intercultural competence. When students go abroad with this knowledge they can then deal with intercultural challenges with much more ease.
