DeSales University students have the opportunity to study abroad in Monte Carlo, Monaco through a partnership with the International University of Monaco.
The International University of Monaco (IUM) is located in the Principality of Monaco, Monte-Carlo on the French Riviera. IUM offers undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate degrees in business specialized in Finance, Luxury, Marketing, Sports Management and International Business. All their business programs are taught in English.
IUM represents a unique multicultural community of students representing 50 nationalities, thus creating a unique environment for versatile business education. Located in Monaco, one of the world's leading business centers, IUM provides students with unique networking opportunities.
In many ways, the International University of Monaco resembles its home country: both IUM and Monaco are microcosms of international business world; both are close-knit communities; both are exceptionally successful due to their tiny size and concentration of talents. IUM boasts a cutting-edge approach to business training that combines theoretical studies of fundamental business concepts, global vision of particular fields and applied skills in specific areas.
Although it is the smallest state on the Mediterranean, the Principality of Monaco is internationally recognized as an economic center.
Additionally, there is an Oblate presence in Monaco, as the Oblates are the official chaplains of the royal family.
