International Partnerships

Following a 3-year study period at CIU in any agreed program, students have the opportunity to continue their fourth year at one of two prestigious universities in the United Kingdom. There are Memorandums of Understanding signed with British universities which enable students to receive a diploma from a partner university in the UK.

CIU has a semester-based study abroad agreement with Pace University – Lubin School of Business, located in New York, United States. Within the scope of this collaboration, CIU students who meet the eligibility requirements may complete one academic semester at Pace University and transfer the credits earned toward their CIU degree.

The program offers students the opportunity to enroll in a variety of business courses, including finance, marketing, management, accounting, and entrepreneurship, while studying in a multicultural academic environment. This agreement further strengthens CIU’s commitment to internationalization by enabling students to gain valuable academic experience in New York—one of the world’s leading centers of finance and global commerce.

Cyprus International University has a semester-long study abroad program agreement with the University of Limerick, one of Ireland's leading centers for education, science, and technology. Within the scope of this cooperation, our students, provided they meet the eligibility criteria, will have the opportunity to complete one semester of their education at the University of Limerick and transfer the credits of the courses they take to their CIU programs. While offering the opportunity to take courses in various fields such as engineering, computer sciences, and business in parallel with Ireland's rising technology ecosystem, the program also allows students to benefit from the strong global business network of the university—which is one of the leading institutions in Ireland for graduate employability rates—and to study in an award-winning, multicultural campus environment.

This prestigious partnership supports CIU's strategy of expanding its global education network while opening doors for our students to acquire deep academic knowledge in Ireland, the technology hub of Europe. Aiming to add a world-class vision to our students' career journeys, this agreement intends to prepare them as global professionals in a dynamic ecosystem where multinational companies are centered.
