Here are the admission requirements for the Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering Business Administration
In the bachelor's distance learning programme Electrical Engineering Business Administration at IU International University (IU), you can enrol if you provide us with your A-levels (general university entrance qualification), your technical college entrance qualification or a subject-specific higher education entrance qualification.
Alternatively, you can also enrol without A-levels. Studying without A-levels at IU is possible under the following conditions:
- You have successfully completed an advanced professional training, such as training to become a state-certified business economist.
- Or you have completed a vocational training, such as training to become a business clerk. Following your training, you have worked in this profession full-time for at least 3 years. If your training is not thematically related to the distance learning course in Electrical Engineering Business Administration, you will first complete a trial course before being regularly enrolled.
If you choose the English-language version, you must also demonstrate your English language skills. For example, you can prove your English language skills by obtaining a TOEFL score (at least 80 points), an IELTS score (at least level 6), passing a Duolingo English test (at least 105 points), a Cambridge certificate (minimum grade B), or an equivalent qualification. Alternatively, you can complete an English course free of charge directly at IU International University.
