Partnerships are becoming the future of global higher education. Partnerships in this new era involve colleges and universities collaborating and coming together as seemingly one institution to change their future direction.  Collaborations are no longer limited to colleges in proximity. Advances in technology can now link together institutions that are separated by hundreds or thousands of miles.  Institutions choose collaborating partners based less on proximity and more on the importance of shared vision. 

IOU Foundation and its partners, Universidad Azteca & Central University of Nicaragua welcome learners who are willing to work hard and deeply interested in exploring the field of social change and social conflict with serious intentions of professional or volunteer service. IOUF offers accredited degrees at the PhD level in a dual degree partnership with the Universidad Azteca International Program and Central University of Nicaragua.

Our consortium partners provide the perfect environment and ample number of opportunities for all learners. Such partners become even more valuable due to the international component. IOU Foundation is proud to have such well respected universities as our consortium partners the Universidad Azteca International Program and Central University of Nicaragua.
