THE INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF ENTREPRENOLOGY

Founded in 1972, the International University of Entreprenology (IUE) is today the world's foremost institution of higher learning with regard to offering appropriate educational programs meeting the unique needs of the men and women either aspiring to be, or having already become, a top level professional.  We are referring, of course, to leaders, top decision-makers and employers in both the public and private sector.

We offer appropriate and relevant real-world degree programs that put the resources you choose to invest in an undergraduate or advanced degree to the best possible use.  We know that your time is valuable and we also know that you want to realize value for every dollar you spend along the way.  For these and other equally important reasons, the IUE offers you the most cost and time-effective degree programs available anywhere in the world today, because that is what you have told us is important to you.

IUE has been dedicated to meeting the educational and career development needs of top level professionals for more than 30 years.  Our innovative programs coupled with our hands-on, team oriented approach to the teaching/learning process makes earning a degree easier and more enjoyable than you might have thought possible.  The programs are learning intensive and, although they will challenge you and demand your best effort, the return on time and effort invested will be exceptionally rewarding both personally and professionally. 

Our programs are structured to take advantage of the fact that working professionals, like you, possess significant practical knowledge.   That is one of the reasons we emphasize active participation over traditional passive lecture … because participation provides the opportunity for an exchange of ideas, concepts, knowledge and experiences among those in the program

As already mentioned, IUE degree courses are real-world programs developed to enhance, expand and build upon skills you may already have.  They provide practical knowledge and usable information that you will be able to apply real-time in your profession.  That is because each curriculum is continuously updated to address changes taking place in the real-world.  What better way to meet the current needs of program participants?

Our instructors hold advanced degrees and, of greater importance, each is a highly experienced professional in his or her respective field.  This makes it possible for our faculty to effectively facilitate the process of taking applicable knowledge and information directly from theory to real-world application.

Our programs require that participants gain a practical understanding of several comparatively sophisticated concepts within a relatively short period of time.  Some might see this as too great a challenge … setting the bar just a little too high.  The majority of our participants, however, find this time-effective teaching/learning process to be both exciting and rewarding.

Yes, our programs are challenging - compelling you to learn, to develop new skills and to increase your knowledge at your highest potential.  Fortunately, our research and experience has taught us that it is within this type of environment – one that is challenging, demanding and ultimately rewarding – that entrepreneurs and entreprenologists flourish.

IUE carries on the principles and spirit of its founder, Dr. James R. Omps: entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity, and a pragmatic love of learning. Dr. Omps' practical outlook remains a driving force in the university's development.

What identifies the vast majority of traditional campuses today are green lawns and landmark architecture replete with monuments to the school's history.  At the IUE, we have no brick and mortar monuments to ourselves - no ivy covered walls celebrating 100+ years in the same location.  The IUE is unique among schools, colleges, universities and institutions of higher learning in that it supports and fosters a true international and diverse interdisciplinary approach to education, scholarship, and training.  The world is truly our campus - by choice.

True to our heritage, the IUE encourages both academic and practical pursuits.  An innovative mindset has positioned IUE as a global leader in interdisciplinary programs - crossing traditional academic and professional boundaries to engage participants in the pursuit of new and useful knowledge. In addition to numerous cross-disciplinary programs, the IUE is home to the Dr. James R. Omps Graduate School of Entreprenology.

Unlike other countries, in the United States there is no national procedure for licensing or accrediting schools, colleges, universities and institutions of higher learning.  Accreditation is voluntary and is not the function of the United States Department of Education.

In the U.S., each of the 50 states is empowered to establish its own policy for licensing and for enumerating the criteria for the awarding of diplomas and degrees.  The IUE's programs are not designed to meet any particular local, state or national licensing or credentialing criteria, nor to meet any requirements established by independent professional associations.  If licensing or credit transfer is the objective of the individual learner, they are advised to investigate the requirements of the particular company, organization, school, college, university or institution of higher learning in which they have an interest so that their program may be designed accordingly.

The International University of Entreprenology is fully accredited by the Commission on HIgher Education, World Association of Visioneers and Entreprenologists.  The Commission is currently in the process of complying with the requirements set forth by the United States Department of Education for official recognition as an accrediting body.  In the Department of Education code under Financial Aid for Post-Secondary Students, Accreditation in the United States, Sub-Part B,  The Criteria for Recognition, Section 602.12 it states:

602.12 Accrediting Experience.
