…and the advantages at AU-IBT
At AU-IBT there are many advantages which you will not find at other universities or business schools. At AU-IBT we primarily focus on:
Your personal development
During your time of study we focus on coaching and personal competences – without compromising the professional contents.
Close contact to the teaching staff
You can always get in contact with the teaching staff if you have any questions or study related problems and you are always welcome to have a talk. At AU-IBT you will never be just a number.
Small classes and tutorials rather than lectures
A great deal of the teaching at AU-IBT takes place as small tutorials. This means that you can influence the teaching. However, it also requires active participation on your part. You cannot hide between a lot of other students.
Close interaction with the business community The contents of the educational programmes must meet the requirements and needs of the business community. Therefore, at AU-IBT we have made it our trade mark to combine theory with praxis. AU-IBT was the first educational institution in Denmark to assign mentor companies to students making it easy to apply theory in praxis.
