THE INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF MONACO IS A PRIVATE INSTITUTION OF HIGHER EDUCATION FOUNDED IN 1986 IN THE PRINCIPALITY OF MONACO
Its program portfolio includes Bachelor’s degrees, multiple Master’s of Science programs, as well as MBA and DBA degrees. It focuses primarily on areas of expertise closely associated with Monaco: the management of high value-added service activities, particularly in the luxury and finance sectors.
This approach has allowed IUM to differentiate itself and achieve continuous growth, with student enrollment increasing from 300 in 2010 to over 1,000 in 2024.
Integration within the OMNES Education Group, the French leader in private higher education, has undoubtedly contributed to this development. Despite this growth, IUM remains an intimate, human-scale business school with a distinctly multicultural outlook.
With more than 70 different nationalities represented in its student body, IUM fosters interactions and exchanges among students from all over the world.
