Transnational educational programmes and projects

Krems exports know-how all over the world

Our university is a recognised partner for education and consulting projects at home and abroad.

Transnational partnerships

IMC University of Applied Sciences Krems designs tailored solutions for partners from the education and business sectors. Our education experts have a wealth of experience with ‘exporting’ our degree programmes and heading up international projects.

International project management

The university’s experience extends well beyond Europe – examples include successful projects in Oman, Namibia, Azerbaijan and China.

There’s ample scope for transnational cooperations in the following areas:

Degree programmes at our partner universities abroad
Continuing education courses at our partner universities abroad
Intensive seminars such as train-the-trainer courses, as well as summer schools
Projects in Austria and abroad

Transnational degree programmes

Transnational bachelor and master degree programmes

We offer our degree programmes at selected partner universities worldwide.

Tailored to local needs

Our transnational, English bachelor and master degree programmes are designed down to the last detail to meet the local needs of our partner universities. And of course, an international focus remains a key aspect. All our transnational degree programmes are fully accredited, and students receive a European degree.

How can your university become a cooperation partner?

Our contact persons will collaborate with you to develop a curriculum and contents based on IMC Krems’ know-how.

Moreover, they will help you manage project coordination, quality assurance, accreditations and selection of teaching staff. IMC Krems can also provide you with our own lecturers as part of the Flying Faculty programme.

Maximum flexibility

Full-time or part-time; in Krems or at the cooperation partner’s location; from just one to a maximum of four semesters. Our team collaborates with the client to design an academic training programme to meet their individual needs.

In our role as consultants, our university can leverage its wealth of experience to put together the ideal package for you.

Intensive seminars

IMC Krems provides tailor-made programmes to organisations in both the public and private sectors.

Further education programmes designed to meet your needs

In addition to traditional intensive seminars, IMC Krems offers train-the-trainer seminars and summer schools.

You’ll benefit from our expertise in subjects such as tourism and hospitality, management, health, sustainability and digitalisation.

What are the specifics of your course design? These are determined by you. For instance, you might specify the content or time period for your training programme: from one to several weeks – the choice is yours. And of course, our team will be happy to advise you from the very beginning.

The project team will also plan the course location in line with your requirements. Either our experts will travel to your university, or participants can attend the course at IMC Campus Krems.

Full-service packages

One thing that the packages have in common: they're designed to be flexible as well as meeting your specifications.

Our project team will assume full responsibility for coordinating organisational matters. If you choose Krems as your course location, participants will be well looked after: from putting together an attractive mix of courses to arranging accommodation, meals and airport transfers – the project team will manage every organisational aspect.

And there will also be time for recreational activities: company excursions, expert talks, executive evening sessions and field trips are all part of the schedule.

After you select IMC Krems as your project partner, our project team will draft a detailed business plan defining the project roadmap.
