Career development

In a competitive job market, educational institutions must prepare students to work in different countries and regions, to have an understanding and respect for diversity and other cultures, and to obtain the tools necessary to succeed in the professional world, all through an individual approach to learning. International careers increasingly require knowledge and skills that transcend the confines of traditional academic disciplines.

The goal of Dubrovnik International University is to provide its students with an excellent education and to aid them in pursuing a challenging and rewarding career after graduation. Our students will be equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary for success in all areas of private, public and non-profit sectors. In an international university, DIU students will be exposed to different cultures and an international student body and faculty, mirroring the environment they will surely encounter throughout their professional life. This type of student-centered, international education is the foremost advantage of DIU.

DIU programs have been designed so that students’ knowledge is applicable to professional challenges in the various areas of international politics and business. DIU graduates will be educated to undertake evolving careers in state and local administrations; diplomatic missions; international organizations; financial and economic institutions; firms dealing with international business; institutions dealing with analysis and consulting in international economic affairs; state and international organizations focused on the international economy; non-profit organizations with an international focus; and the private sector.

In Croatia and in the wider region there is a great need for experts of this profile. This need will increase with the further linking of Croatia and the countries of the region to Euro-Atlantic integrations. Upon Croatia’s accession into the EU, graduates will have access to a market of 500 million people in which International Relations and International Business-related knowledge will be especially in demand.

The faculty, staff and Board of Advisors of Dubrovnik International University are dedicated to providing students with advice and assistance in finding part-time or summer internships and permanent employment after graduation.
