|A Brief History|

The Intercultural Management Institute (IMI) has more than 50 years of experience in the field of intercultural management and cross-cultural communication. In 1990, IMI moved from the office of the Provost of American University to the School of International Service. Before that time, IMI was called the Business Council for International Understanding (BCIU) Institute. Building upon the prestigious foundations of the BCIU Institute, IMI continues its predecessor's esteemed work in intercultural communication, pre-departure orientation, repatriation training, and area briefing. Its presence within the university is a clear demonstration of a commitment to intercultural understanding and international service that extends back more than forty years.
