Berlin Institute for Empirical Integration and Migration Research (BIM)

The Berlin Institute for Empirical Integration and Migration Research (BIM) is an interdisciplinary research center at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. It was founded in 2014 and examines questions of integration and migration in a broader context by looking at modern migration societies as a whole.

The BIM is headed by Prof. Dr. Gökçe Yurdakul and Prof. Dr. Herbert Brücker and focuses on dynamics of migration, integration, inclusion and exclusion in post-migrant societies as a whole. It examines how integration and migration processes have evolved in Germany and Europe and how they will develop in the future. The BIM combines empirical basicresearch with theories of migration and integration research and is divided into eight departments that conduct research on topics such as "Integration, social networks and cultural lifestyles", "Education and integration", "Labor market, migration and integration" and "Integration, sport and soccer".
