"Point your career upward."
American InterContinental University (AIU) was founded in 1970 to provide students with a curriculum that prepares them for rewarding and successful careers. AIU Online offers students a flexible alternative to a traditional campus education, and offers students real world experience and industry-current knowledge.
AIU caters to the busiest students and understands that many have demanding personal and career responsibilities. AIU offers multiple campuses across the U.S., many study abroad locations, as well as a comprehensive online campus, allowing students to earn their degrees on campus, online, or do a combination of both.

"Real-world, career-focused education."
Blended Learning Option
AIU students can easily blend classes they take on campus with classes that are available online. Or they can conduct their entire education online with AIU’s comprehensive online campus. Students who are already traveling or who have a desire to travel can take part in AIU’s many study abroad opportunities and international campuses.
Team-Based Approach to Student Success
AIU provides every student with a personal academic advisor who will help with everything from choosing classes to finding financial aid to planning for a great career. AIU students can access the online campus from anywhere there is an Internet connection, and once online, advisors are available to assist with any questions, and live chat options are available as well. Or, advisors are available by phone. Also, AIU continues to support students even after they graduate. Sites developed specifically for AIU alumni allow them to keep in touch academically, professionally and socially.
Industry-Current Degree Programs
AIU offers career-based curriculum taught by instructors with years of experience within their fields. AIU knows that students need the knowledge and experience that will be expected of them once they begin careers in their desired fields. Instead of being asked to take a multiple-choice quiz, students will be asked to manage a project or develop a new business plan. AIU makes sure class content is up-to-date and offers students the hands-on, practical experience that employers love.
