Study at Motel One

Lay the foundation for a successful career in the hotel industry with our international Work & Study program and more!

International Work & Study Program

The students will work part-time at a Motel One throughout Europe. The lectures take place online at IU's virtual campus, which gives students access to all learning materials and provides the opportunity to network with fellow students across Europe. The exclusive Motel One class guarantees maximum learning success thanks to the small class size. After three years, students will not only receive a Bachelor of Arts degree in hospitality management, but will have also acquired relevant practical experience.

The International University of Applied Sciences IU is the largest university in Germany, but also one of the most modern learning institutions in all of Europe. With "myStudium", IU has created a digital learning environment that gives students full flexibility. With completely digital content and lectures, study and learning times can be individually scheduled. This allows students to work on the side without having to interrupt their studies. Students attend 3 modules per semester on 2 to 3 days a week. 

Parallel to the program at IU, students will be working part-time (approx. 20-25h/week) at a European Motel One. They will have the opportunity to rotate through various departments of the hotel:

  • Front Office & Reservation
  • Food & Beverage Service
  • Housekeeping
  • Sales & Administration

Career opportunities

Motel One is a dynamic and internationally growing hotel chain. Within the next three years alone, more than 10 new hotels will open in different countries.
