The courses are characterised by both, high scientific quality and strong practical orientation.

The IST University of Applied Sciences benefits from the cooperation with the IST-Studieninstitut (study institute), which offers full and part time qualification possibilities for over 25 years. From the beginning, the focus of the IST study institute was on blended learning. Constantly evolving, this learning system is used by the IST University as well. Nowadays our blended learning methods enable students to study wherever and whenever they want. All study materials are constantly revised. Because of the innovative learning system, high quality education materials and the focus on specific business areas, the number of students is growing constantly.

International Activities

Companies are acting more and more international. Germany is already an export world champion and many companies are world market leaders in their field. For the young generation, this represents a daily and increasingly important challenge. At the IST University of Management, we see internationalisation as an opportunity. It is part of our education policy and we therefore support our students, staff and professors in the expansion of their international experience.

Partnerships
We want to adjust teaching and research to the constantly and dynamically changing conditions of internationalization. For this reason, the university is taking part in the Erasmus+ programme and has several university partners all over the world. We are always interested in new partnerships.

Language Skills
We promote the language skills of our students through special online language courses and sector-specific modules in English and we consistently strive to enable our students and staff to expand their international experience.
