What is the International Multi University?

It is an independent, non-governmental and non-profit institution with an international remit and projection. The academic offer includes alternative courses and trainings worldwide.

Study at your own pace while you work, stay at home, or travel.

At IMU we believe that the fundamental purpose of education is to nourish the inherent possibilities of human development. Universities should be places that facilitate the total development of all learners. Learning must involve the enrichment and deepening of relationships to self, to family and community members, to the global community, and to the planet. These ideas have been expressed eloquently and put into practice by such educational pioneers as Dewey, Montessori, Steiner, and many others.

IMU strives for wholeness in the educational process. Wholeness implies that each academic discipline provides a different perspective on the rich, complex, integrating phenomenon of life. Holistic education celebrates and makes constructive use of evolving, alternative views of reality, and multiple ways of knowing. It is not only the intellectual and vocational aspects of human development that need guidance and nurturance but also the physical, social, ethical, creative and—in a nonsectarian sense—spiritual aspects. Holistic education takes into account the mystery of life and the universe, in addition to experiential reality.

Personal Development and Higher Education meet at the IMU. The International Multi University is invested in your quest to embrace your inner knowledge, integrate it into your life and express it for the betterment of your world.
