Student Life in Germany

Why is studying at ISM so popular?

ISM offers you a wide range of study programs in Germany with a business orientation, high educational quality, individual support, semesters abroad, double degrees and a direct link to practice. The ISM locations are situated in the cultural and economic centers of Germany and offer you, in addition to a strong economy, a variety of sports, cultural and leisure opportunities. Studying in Germany opens up attractive opportunities.

If you have any questions, your student advisor will be happy to help you.

Helping shape the campus

Through numerous student working groups (AKs) and organizations, ISM students have the opportunity to realize their individual interests and preferences during their studies and to help shape their own campus. Whether it's letting your creativity run free in the AK Marketing Support or working out after class with a variety of sports, everything is possible at ISM. Your own ideas for new working groups are also welcome. The dedicated team of the Student Council (SV) plays an important role at ISM. Whether fellow students, alumni or interested parties - the SV is happy to answer all questions and tries to find a solution for every concern. Student activities are an integral part of the educational concept and are actively supported by ISM.

Events

The diverse events at ISM give students the opportunity to get to know different subject areas and companies better. At the Career Day, many reputable companies come together every year to present attractive entry-level opportunities. Questions, e.g. about marketing strategies or current topics in the finance industry, are discussed at the ISM Summits. The Summits at the International School of Management are organized by ISM staff together with students for students. For more information on current events, see the MyISM area in your student portal and follow our social media channels such as Instagram and LinkedIn.

Together with the ISM

Student Clubs and Extracurricular Activities

The ISM's family campuses ensure strong cohesion. The AK-Event organizes regular campus-specific events such as cinema or barbecue evenings. Lecturers and ISM students plan events together, such as the Running Dinner, to spend evenings together.

Student Clubs

ISM-students have founded a number of student clubs. Variety ranges from consulting (ConsultISM) and tourism (AK TourISM) to politics (PolitISM) and finance (AK Banking). Please contact the spokesperson of each club if you are interested in joining for the time of your stay or participate in one of their activities.

Student life and parties

You will not miss any party as the party committee will put up announcements everywhere in the building. ISM parties are normally on Thursdays which does not mean that ISM students are not partying the other days as well. These parties are a great chance to meet local students and have good fun!

Running Dinner

The running dinner is one of the most popular events among students. After the announcement you sign up at the office of the student body and decide if you want to be a cook or a driver. As an example let us say you are a girl and a driver. This means you will be paired with a guy who will make his kitchen available for the two of you to cook the starter, the main dish or the desert. For the dish you cook, two other “couples’” will arrive. (But you do not know who!) For the other two dishes you drive to someone else’s house where, again, two other ‘”couples” will be.

It is a great chance to meet a lot of people and to talk to lecturers and staff in a different surrounding as they participate as well.
