Every day we are courageously transforming education
Our mission
Empowering people through the best personalized education experience.
Game changing
My life. My way
My education
We are meeting the demands of individual students by interweaving learning with lifestyle instead of disrupting it.
We envision a knowledge-driven world of lifelong learning based on a flexible portfolio of core schooling, up-skilling, reskilling, and retraining. By reimagining our curriculum, operating model, service delivery, back office, IT strategy, and student support, we are doing at scale what has never been done before.
How do we make it happen?
By building a team of exceptionally talented people and giving them the freedom to run and innovate. That’s how we thrive. Our shared values help us meet the thrilling challenges ahead and foster a culture like no other—one that empowers and reveals everyone’s potential. If you feel inspired and jump on board, you will be entrusted to make big decisions, usher in change, and take action from day one.
Join the game changers of education and get ready for a rollercoaster ride!

Empowering our people through technology. We are tech-savvy!
What makes IU stand out is not solely our inspired people but the way we embrace technology together. We include employees in our IT strategy, empowering them and creating a hotbed of productivity. With technology, we work together better. Connectivity, collaboration, and mobility are extending our capabilities and performance. We are more flexible, more efficient, and we feel more supported. Our workplace is a hybrid of physical and virtual. We utilise our collective intelligence with ease.
We compete in the age of the consumer, powered by the promises of Industry 4.0 and digital transformation. We might not all be digital natives, we become tech-savvy to further our mission. Our future is connected and digital.
Hypergrowth drives opportunity for all
We have grown to become the largest University of Applied Sciences in Germany since our foundation in 1998. This metric is indisputable proof that we are leading a historical shift in education delivery and our mission is real.
With over 75,000 students, we are more passionate than ever. As gratifying and humbling as it is for us, we plan to continue growing.
Like being attached to a rocket ship in unchartered space, we cling on tight, scream with excitement, while keeping the whole thing under control. Such rapid growth presents some clear opportunities and some we don’t know yet. We are looking for people who won’t be afraid of the journey but see the opportunities and seize them.
Smart leadership attracts smart people.
IU leadership clears the path for everyone to feel confident in sharing their raw ideas. We go beyond asking people to speak up by supporting curiosity and discovery and by capturing the energy a new idea brings. We champion ideas that spur innovation, and we recognise and celebrate everyone’s contributions. And, we do it with empathy, integrity, courage, and humility.
