The name Juneteenth Intercontinental University (JIU) comes from the University’s founder, the present chancellor, and consultant of JIU.

JIU's vision is to equip its students with knowledge that is both adequate and relevant to change the world.

The university's mission is to better our students through educational experiences both in and out of the classroom, to create a haven where students feel safe to tackle challenges and accomplish their personal and professional goals, to offer various services designed to help students be the best version of themselves while having fun along the way.

The Intercontinental Campaign is designed to embrace the future and ensure JIU’s leadership from the start. It educates its students to cultivate inquisitive minds in the pursuit of truth and humanism.
