 International University Bremen - First Commencement
Visitors to International University Bremen (IUB), Germany’s only private university planned on the Anglo-American model, may not be able to detect the military base that once occupied these grounds, but they cannot help recognizing that what has transpired academically in Bremen in the last three years is a stunning success.
In the planning stage, IUB was projected to have 800 undergraduate students and 400 graduate students within five years, and while the graduate numbers will be reached (approximately 220 this fall), the undergraduate goal cannot be met until a fourth college is constructed.
IUB is just ahead of the curve, and its experience with the bachelor’s degree with an interdisciplinary curriculum will undoubtedly serve it well in years to come.
