Different from other universities, Chemical Engineering at IULI prioritized science and biology with a touch of engineering in it."

"Learning in IULI is fun and challenging. It is fun because there is no gap between the lecturers and the students, also between students in each semester. The challenging part comes when we were in 6th semester, when we need to pass the OFSE test and also entrance test for double degree program."

"For me, this is a unique opportunity to live in another country and embolden myself in a new culture, environment, and language. I am particularly interested to study in Germany due to its quality of education. I am expecting to learn more about chemical biotechnology (since the major that I am taking in here is Chemical Biotechnology or Biotechnische Chemie) and after finishing study, I hope that I can continue my master study or working in Germany, because I believe that Germany is the right place to study or work in that biotechnology field.

Now, I consider it to be the best combination between my interests and the right path for my higher education. Graduating from high school, I had favored the latter as an option for my higher education. However, I was persuaded by my parents very early on that the international connections that a private international university held would be very advantageous for a student."

"I chose aviation engineering because of my long time fascination with the world of flight. In the time I have flown in an airplane, it has been very memorable experiences. I decided that my future had to have something to do with that part of the world."

"The study in IULI has challenged me in multiple areas. Material wise, it has been the most I have ever been challenged in my life. If this semester has taught me one thing, it would be how to be even better prepared for next semester."

"I haven't really considered my options for the last year in IULI. I would be very blessed to go to Germany or anywhere abroad for that matter."

"I choose IULI because I want to take part in the development of aviation industry in Indonesia. In order for me to achieve that goal, I have to study in the best university. Then I found IULI, a private international university who cooperated with universities abroad. Also I am inspired by Mr. B. J. Habibie, his desire and struggle to build the aviation industry in Indonesia. I hope to get unusual yet interesting experiences to study local and abroad.

Firstly, I grew up abroad and mainly spoke English when I was living in Qatar and so IULI provides many International Bachelor study programs that are taught in English. They also provide a German language course which is mandatory and it gives the opportunity to explore the different culture, and learning more about the world around us. Furthermore, IULI also provides internship abroad for all of the Bachelor’s study programs so that you are able to get an international working experience with the help of the university with companies in Europe. Another reason that I chose IULI is that they offer Double degrees to Germany and Taiwan which I am looking forward to since I am planning to continue my studies in Germany and also look for a job there. Besides that, they also offer a range of scholarships which you can apply. The reason why I chose a private international university instead of a public university is because private universities are an excellent choice for higher education and they have top notch professors as well as many international programs that you could explore."

I chose IULI because it is a private campus-based on international programs, where the learning activities are delivered and practiced using English. Besides increasing my knowledge, I can also practice my communication skills with friends from various cultures across the nation.

Of course, I will introduce IULI to people around. This is so that everyone has more options about the university he will choose. The more campus they know, they will understand which campus is the best for the process of forming themselves in the future."

"Aviation engineering is the major I chose at IULI. Why aviation? Indonesia is an archipelagic country. Therefore, aviation development is very much needed for the welfare of the Indonesian people, and IULI has an offer for this program. Coupled with the support from Mr. Ilham Habibie, qualified lecturers, and also several well-known partnership companies."

"I was delighted when I studied at IULI, even though the campus was only established for two years in 2017. There were some shortcomings, such as the number of students who were not too many. But I made this a distinct advantage. I was able to get to know a lot of friends in other majors and expand connections with seniors, staff, and course lecturers."

"I chose Taiwan as my advanced university because IULI has a 3+2 Study program collaboration, wherewith five years of study, I can get a bachelor's and master's degree directly. This program is where the tuition fee required is also more affordable."

"Of course, it is very challenging for general students, especially amid a pandemic like this. But as an IULI student, I get so many advantages. IULI has an excellent partnership with the NFU, so the Office of International Affairs in NFU supports me very well. They were very enthusiastic about including me in various events and activities at NFU.

IULI was undoubtedly very supportive. Some procedures were not optimal at that time, such as the collection of documents needed at that time was a bit messy, there were problems in applying for a visa, but that's all I can say is normal because I was the first batch to depart. But the campus keeps asking for my life updates here."

"I’m so grateful for being here.

All of that is fulfilled, I'm grateful to have the opportunity to join this 3+2 program."

"I grew up in Airforce complex and areas, my interest towards aviation was influenced indirectly from it. And comes a question such as “How does something go/fly so fast.""

"It’s a “love-hate” years of education, where the ambience and teaching culture is great, yet my brain could comprehend the intensity early on. Some of the lecturers taught me both life lessons and engineering."

"I did, as cliché as it sounds, it was impactful. My life skills improved vastly, especially planning forward even for small activities, such as hang out and cooking. The study system was hard, as language barrier halts you and extra study time is required to get used to it. On the other hand, experiences with friends abroad are irreplicable."

"Yes, very supportive in my case. I had different program pathway due to COVID-19 and other Germany regulations. But administrative from IULI and TU-Ilmenau, helped me so much allowing me to fulfill all requirements in time. They gave me options how to go there by finishing thesis first, so I did what they suggested no regrets eversince.

Definitely. Aside from if the person has financial support, it is a grand opportunity to experience what real life is, plus it is abroad, which are prone to more challenges and obstacle that will strengthen an individual. Other bonuses includes a euro trip with friends."

"Versatile."

"The studies at IULI provided me with numerous opportunities to grow and learn. The study activities, the staff and lecturers, and the student body all provided a positive environment and experience that is extremely valuable."

"Me and two other students from INR 2016 got the opportunity to participate in a student exchange program with the Regensburg University of Applied Sciences (OTH Regensburg), in Bavaria, Germany, for our research and internship semesters from September 2019 to September 2020.

Thanks to the help from the International Team of IULI and OTH, it was a constructive learning experience that was both challenging and fun. We gained new friends, new experiences, and new perspectives from studying abroad and was able to successfully complete our internship and thesis research."

"IULI supported liaising and contact with the OTH, and provided guidance for the thesis research process as well as other administrative requirements, particularly also for the visa process.

Yes, I highly recommend other students to take the opportunity to study abroad if possible. The experience of studying abroad and the new perspectives and knowledge that can be obtained makes it very worthwhile."

"It is of course challenging, but ultimately very worthwhile and valuable."

"After graduation, I had the opportunity of doing an internship in the ASEAN Coordinating Centre for Humanitarian Aid and Assistance (the AHA Centre), and then also continuing to a full-time position there.

Through the study of INR and the research and internship semesters abroad, I am well-prepared for the international work environment and challenges of my job at the AHA Centre."
