Mission Statement International American University’s (IAU) mission is to provide a positive learning and social environment where students, faculty, staff, and alumni can come together to build a campus community of collaboration, prepare students professionally and promote ethical business practices according to Christian principles.

Statement of Faith IAU subscribes to the following Statement of Faith:

• We believe that God eternally exists in three persons — the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit — having precisely the same nature and attributes.

• We believe God, by the word of His power, created from nothing the heavens and the earth and all that is in them. He further preserves and governs all His creatures and all their actions according to His most holy, wise, and powerful providence.

• We believe that man was created in the image of God, good and upright, but fell from his state of innocence by voluntary disobedience of God.

• We believe that salvation is entirely by the grace of God, apart from human works or merit, and that it is received through faith in Jesus Christ, who died for our sins.

• We believe that there is a personal devil who seeks to tempt and separate people from God.• We believe the bodies of men, after death, return to dust and see corruption, but their souls, which neither die or sleep, having

an immortal subsistence, immediately return to God who gave them.

2020 Student Demographics

Ferdinand Lazaro, ASBA, 2019One of the best things I've gained through my education at IAU is identifying my goals. It has helped me to prepare for my career – from building a professional resume up to dealing with the different networks I can form. Overall my experience with the faculty and the staff were great and enjoyable. They influenced me to work hard in the future. One of my Professors once said that your education is the only thing that people cannot take away from you.

Galamat Nauryzbayev, BBA, 2020In my opinion, regarding the knowledge gained, I believe that IAU provides strong fundamental knowledge in the fields of finance, economics, etc. Many of my colleagues will agree with me. You may not even men-tion the fact that most IAU graduates are fluent in English, when 98% of the students are international. I have many positive memories of my studies at IAU –from intensive summer courses and sleepless nights preparing for exams every semester. IAU left an excellent memory in my life.

Altanzaya Darkhanbayar, MBA, 2019My first goal was to open my own business in America. I wanted to learn how to start my own company and make it successful. Attending IAU has been a beneficial experience. Their program has taught me a lot about business. They provided classes such as Business Law and Business Strategy which really helped push my business career forward. Overall, my experience at IAU has helped me in my career goals.
