MY EXPERIENCE AT AIU
I have got a good experience with AIU, an educational institution aiming at promoting Human Rights around the world. Through its distance learning program, it has allowed me to further my studies up to the doctoral level. I was wondering how I could make it, since getting a scholarship in my country is not easy thing. Now, I may be called doctor thanks to AIU.
AIU organizes Business, human and social, and engineering studies, responding to everybody’s professional and academic needs. As far as I am concerned, I have dealt with Social and Human studies, and to match it with my Master’s major, I decided to do Economic management and Human Rights, a new trend brought into the scientific area by Chaire UNESCO of Human Rights. I have selected courses in connection to Management and Human Rights, such as Business Ethics, Communication Management, Human Resources Management, Typology of Human Rights, Philosophy of Human Rights, Sociology of Conflict, etc. This field of interest (Economic Management and Human Rights) will help me to develop both my academic and professional profiles and contribute to the expansion of globalization in general, particularly the development of my developing country, the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
With AIU’s distance learning, I did not leave my job and family alone. I have experienced everything online. My contact with my tutors, advisors and the academic department, through different emails and comments through my student session page has been fruitful for me. This adult-based and self- paced education, with AIU’s professional and hardworking faculty and staff is the one I have ever heard about. I discovered it by browsing through internet. I was tempted to go to UNISA, a well known university of South Africa, and by any chance I opened AIU page the same day and read the admission requirements. I will never forget my admission advisor Sandra, Phase I tutor Nadia, who most of time intervened where I got stuck through my program. I will never forget Gorea, and my academic advisor who committed to help me through my doctorate program.
I encourage anybody who wants to do like me to join the AIU family. They will not be disappointed. Moreover, they will learn in a supportive ambiance.
