Located in Columbia, South Carolina, CIU offers more than classes and degrees. You bring us your passion. We’ll provide you the space for personal growth, academic excellence … the avenues you need to pursue your dreams.

Head, Heart, Hands

During your academic experience at CIU, we want you to engage your head, heart and hands. That's the Educational Triad.
