International Visitors Center Of Jackson

"An Urban Research University - A Global Vision"

Established in 1986, the International Visitors Center of Jackson (IVCJ) is Mississippi’s only visitor center and the only center in the country located on the campus of an HBCU. IVCJ is committed to improving and strengthening cultural and economic understanding between citizens of Mississippi and foreign dignitaries.

As a member of Global Ties U.S., IVCJ helps build international understanding by promoting the importance of tolerance, global commonalities, and best practices within a democracy. IVCJ also acts as a local sponsor for Global Ties’ International Visitor Leadership Program that arranges professional visits to the United States for current and emerging foreign leaders. The visits reflect the visitors’ professional interests and support the foreign policy goals of the U.S. government. Through these encounters, the participants gain a greater understanding of the cultural and political influences in U.S. society and enjoy a firsthand experience of the U.S., our people and our culture.
