LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE

tHE VIENNA CENTRE

Management International University (MIU) is a unique institution that is building the next generation of global diplomats, entrepreneurs and leaders in foreign affairs, development and human rights.

As the educational division of International Communities Organisation (ICO), we are excited to announce that ICO is getting ready to build an ICO branded Institute with a physical MIU campus in Vienna, Austria. Over the course of the next three years, ICO will undertake to build a self-funding and self-financing facility in the north of Vienna, near the United Nations (UN) office. Our Vienna campus will provide our students and visitors with state-of-the-art facilities, such as library, conference halls, offices, shops, athletic spaces, and student and delegate accommodations.

The ICO Vienna site will be the first home of Management International University (MIU).

MIU’s Vienna campus will bridge the gap between theory and practice by truly offering students, visiting lecturers and communities the chance to put knowledge into practice, in the name of peaceful development across the globe. MIU will take its place and offer its accredited courses to international students through our SMART classrooms. 

At our Vienna centre, MIU will deliver a range of Degree courses, Masters degrees and specialised training programmes to students as well as field professionals. The Vienna campus will be the headquarters of ICO operations, including hosting diplomatic meetings, training of international peace facilities and negotiators, a centre for the United Nations advocacy and a leading global research centre.

Here, students will have an extraordinary learning experience as their courses are delivered alongside real-time live ICO operations. Students will receive guest lectures from active experts in areas such as conflict studies from Dr. Baskin, who might, on that very same day, be leading peace negotiations between conflicting parties on the Vienna campus! Students will also have the opportunity to support ICO by completing desk-based research and take part in research activities such as conflict transformation analysis as part of their studies with MIU.

The Vienna Campus will host a number of diplomatic meetings and critical peace negotiations, many of which MIU students will have the opportunity to attend in the conference gallery to watch the live action unfold. ICO regularly participates in key United Nations mechanisms and procedures, including virtual meetings but also in-person conferences in New York and Geneva.

A select number of MIU students may have the opportunity to attend or even participate in these UN activities. MIU students will train alongside ICO’s live peacebuilding operations in Vienna. They will gain hands-on experience in diplomacy, development, and human rights from leading experts and access exclusive opportunities to participate in UN activities and international negotiations.
