The IME-BECAS program was formed in 2005 at the initiative of the Government of Mexico to contribute to the educational development and improvement of Mexican migrants living in the United States of America.

The program supports students so they can continue their academic education.

Since its inception in 2005, more than 56,000 students have benefited from the IME Scholarship program in the United States.
