Mission & Vision

At AIU, we believe that knowledge and information is evolving and it is our duty to focus on each of our students as the key players in their destiny. This century’s university must generate new knowledge instead of directing so much energy on the publicity concerning the size of their campuses, their libraries and more commonly their accreditation and/or academic standing. AIU thinks that a university should be increasingly integrated into the “real world”, society, the economy, and the holistic human being. As such, it should concentrate on its ultimate goal, which is the student, and get him/her deeply immersed into a daily praxis of paradigm shifts.

AIU students must accomplish their self-learning mission as the core of daily life values through the type of experiences that lead to progress when information is converted into education. The entire AIU family thinks of the university as a place that values diversity and talent in a way that trains mankind for the present and future, and calls every day for professionals to empower themselves in academic and professional arenas. We shall not forget that at AIU, students are responsible for discovering their own talents and potential, which must auto-develop in such a way that the finished product reveals itself as a flower tat blossoms more beautifully with time.
AIU students must also show interest in topics not immediately related to their careers. This will allow for more creativity that can be used to enhance different kinds of solutions with a trade mark of effectiveness and efficiency.

The AIU stance is on that goes against the idea of the campus as a getaway from day-to-day pressure. We believe reality is the best potential-enhancer and that one truly learns through thinking, brainstorming ideas; which leads to new solutions, and ultimately the rebirth of a human being fully integrated in a sustainable world environment. Self-learning is thought to be actualized from within as opposed to a top-down vantage point. We need to create a society where solidarity, culture, and life, are prioritized instead of political or economic rationalism and techno structures. In short, the characteristics of AIU students and alumni remain to be independence, creativity, self-confidence, and the ability to take risk towards new endeavors. This is about people’s worth and is based not solely on what they know but also on what they do with this knowledge.

Let us remember that people, and not the professions, are the true ultimate goal of education. It is critical for our culture to shift paradigms by steering their focus way beyond the simple duties of a job. In other words, success in a position is measured by much more than the parameters of the job description and the salary associated with it. Other criteria that must be considered are the percentage of people who make a living from the results of professional performance, an economic contribution to the world community, intellectual production, and solidarity with others. It is the hope of AIU, that its student body develops long term goals not only for its organizational spirit but also for its human endeavors.
