University profile
The ‘IST Hochschule für Management’ offers industry-specific distance learning programmes in the fields of ‘Sport & Management’, ‘Fitness & Health’, ‘Tourism & Hospitality’ and ‘Communication, Media, Event & Business’.
These include bachelor's programmes that are suitable for school leavers who want to start a career in the respective industry as well as for people who already have professional experience and want to take the next step in their career. In addition, there are master's programmes for the next step on the educational and career ladder. In addition to a full-time and a part-time variant, almost all study programmes are also offered as dual studies—i.e. as a combination of practical vocational training in a company and the academic teaching of a university.
