IAU’s primary market is F-1 visa students. Although total immersion in the U.S. is a wonderful experience, that opportunity is not afforded to all students who wish to study American business. Challenges such as visa approvals, work or family obligations, cost of tuition, and living expenses, make it difficult for students to study in the U.S. For overseas international students, Many underserved economically challenged countries such as Vietnam, India, Sri Lanka, and Nepal crave an American education. IAU has found a way to bring the IAU American education to them. Working with strategic partners, IAU plans to expand globally to add international satellite campuses around the world. IAU successfully established an international satellite campus in Kathmandu, Nepal in December 2023. IAU’s acceditor, TRACS, has now approved international satellite campuses in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia (IAUMN) and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (IAUHCM).
IAUMN is established with the strategic partnership with Good Foundation Forming (GFF) Founder and Director of GFF, Enkhmurun Odgiiv (Christy). IAUHCM is strategically partnered with Hung Vuong University (DHV) with the help of Vietnam Regional Manager, Mai Diệu La. Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar has a population of 1.5 million, while Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam boasts a population of 9 million. IAU plans to make a large impact on both communities.
The establishment of IAU international satellite campuses will have a positive impact on education and cultural exchange. IAU students may study at these international satellite campuses, explore new cultures, learn the business practices of other cultures, get new business ideas, and grow a global professional and personal network. Imagine a Mongolia Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) student who wishes to start their program at home. Then spend year two in Nepal to uncover the deep rich history. In year three, the student goes to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, named “Asia’s Leading Business Travel Destination 2022” at the most recent edition of the prestigious World Travel Awards. Then, year four, the final year is spent in the U.S., finishing up their program in Los Angeles, CA. That is a global business education experience!
