“Design your Success”
To enable you to make the most of your opportunities, we have given studying a complete rethink. We provide most of the learning and study content online via the INU APP. This way, without a rigid timetable, you can always learn precisely when your daily routine allows. And you can also complete many of the annoying formalities that a degree program entails relatively quickly with the aid of the INU APP.
There is, of course, also a real “student life” at the INU for all our full-time and part-time students. Whenever you can manage it, you can attend selected classes on the campus in person.
Even if you are already in the middle of working life, or have a family or other personal obligations, you can use these options flexibly.
The INU – Innovative University of Applied Sciences sees itself as an innovative online university where you can combine digital and real classes as well as various international options.
Here you can choose from future-oriented and practically relevant study programs and educational formats with up-to-date research and scientific references.
The INU – Innovative University of Applied Sciences, as a privately owned university based in Cologne, is officially recognized by the Ministry of Art and Science (MKW) of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW).
The three basic full- or part-time Bachelor’s degree programs are unconditionally accredited by the Foundation Accreditation Council until 31st March 2031.
The full-time INU study programs are also eligible for funding in accordance with Section 2 (2) of the Federal Law on Support in Education (BAföG).
The INU’s distance learning programs are approved by the State Central Office for Distance Learning (ZFU) under numbers 1144322 to 1144522.
On April 1, 2023, the INU started its online study operations and on-campus offerings in Cologne for the summer semester 2023 and enrolled the first students.
In addition to this the quality management ensures the smooth running of all administrative processes.
Students of the INU have the possibility of a semester-related and recurring evaluation of all lectures and events, including all lecturers, via the INU APP.
The administration and service processes are in accordance with DIN ISO 9001. All administrative processes are regularly checked for quality and achievement of objectives. In the event of anomalies or deviations, further testing and corrective measures are initiated.
As a university of applied sciences the INU particularly focuses on practice-oriented research in conjunction with the latest scientific findings. This way you gain insight into everyday research as well as access to current scientific publications and studies. This opens up exciting possibilities for you to immediately apply newly acquired knowledge and skills to concrete questions.
The INU Institute, currently under development, is pursuing a similar approach. Here too, bridging the gap between theoretical science and practical research topics will lead to the development of application-oriented solution proposals, which can immediately be incorporated into teaching and the INU’s university business, as well as directly implemented by our cooperation partners and clients.
In an initial phase the INU will focus on the following areas of research in the field of tension between the human, technical and management elements:
The goal is to be able to offer our students from the summer semester 2023 a selection of attractive organizations that want to get in contact with future INU graduates early on, are interested in supporting them through their studies and will, e.g., assign internships and assignments for practical projects.
On the one hand, the network will have concrete links to the INU study courses and the corresponding markets and industries, and on the other it will also be characterized by wide variety and interdisciplinarity.
