International American University’s (IAU) mission is to provide a positive learning and social environment where students, faculty, staff, and alumni can come together to build a campus community of collaboration, prepare students professionally, and promote ethical business practices according to Christian principles.

IAU has a goal to be a vibrant Christian university that is committed to distinctively Christian beliefs, values and practices in accord with its mission and objectives. While the university is clear about its identity as a Christian university and its foundational convictions, IAU is intentionally committed to living out the faith and providing an example of Christian values and morality. IAU is strongly committed to guiding our students to become socially responsible, compassionate leaders by making an enduring impact on their communities.

IAU is an interdenominational university and embraces students of all faiths or no faith. The hope is to introduce Christian life and principles to those seeking a religious identity.
