STUDY FOR A BRITISH UNIVERSITY DEGREE RIGHT HERE IN GENEVA IN 2021

by Chené Koscielny

2020 and 2021 are not the best years to start your university career, let’s face it.

COVID-19 has resulted in cancelled exams, missed university places, enforced self-isolation and online learning for many young people and there is no telling when it will all end and how this year’s problems might continue to affect next year’s intake. This is regardless of whether the pandemic is brought under control or not.

Now that hopping on a plane is not so easy, international families living in Geneva have to think carefully whether having a child studying abroad is the best choice after all.

If your family is based in Geneva and your child wants to study for a British university degree, but you are also looking at options closer to home, the International University of Geneva (IUG) offers a British university degree right here in Geneva.

7 REASONS TO STUDY FOR A BRITISH UNIVERSITY DEGREE IN GENEVA

1. COVID, OBVIOUSLY!

As long as this pandemic is around, having your child closer to the family home seems like a good idea.

2. 2 DEGREES IN 3 YEARS

British University Degree - Geneva

Since 2018 students who study for any IUG bachelor programme have the opportunity to graduate with 2 international degrees in Geneva in 3 years: a Bachelor degree from the International University in Geneva IUG and a BSc (hons) in Business Management from the University of Plymouth (UK). This is shorter and more cost-effective than doing 2 separate degrees.

In their third year, students are graded both by the professors of the International University in Geneva and the University of Plymouth (UK).

3. FAMILIAR, MANAGEABLE SURROUNDS

If your child has grown up in Geneva, the thought of studying in a bigger city far from home- particularly in these uncertain times may be daunting. Continuing their studies, including studying for a British degree, in the familiar surroundings of Geneva, may be the perfect solution.

4. MULTI-CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT, GLOBAL EDUCATION AND NETWORK

IUG students study in a in multicultural environment and classes are limited to 30, providing students the time to access their professors. By choosing to study in a university, where the student body represents over 60 nationalities, each student prepares themselves for a global education. The faculty from 20 countries develop the analytical and decision-making skills necessary to thrive in a competitive environment.

IUG alumni are invited back on campus to present the company or organisation for which they work. The alumni span over 100 countries, representing an opportunity for students to participate in a global network.

5. INTERNATIONAL STUDY OPPORTUNITIES

During their studies IUG students can spend a term abroad at one of the partner institutions including Boston University, ESIC in Madrid or American University in Dubai. During the academic year several study tours are organised such as the visit of Silicon Valley and a student delegation participates each year in the competition of the Model United Nations organised by Harvard University -World MUN.

6. INNOVATIVE INSTRUCTION AND INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

The methods of instruction at the International University in Geneva are innovative and underline the importance of gaining an international perspective on management, digital, and international relations issues.

7. TWO INTAKES A YEAR

The undergraduate programs have two entries in September and February.
