Educational exchange with national and foreign universities is given a high priority at IIHEM. The Institute actively seeks academic exchange agreements with renowned American and European universities for the exchange of students and professors, and for the development of joint degree programs.

To this end, a general partnership agreement for academic exchange has been signed by the Institute with the Texas International Education Consortium (TIEC), a consortium grouping thirty-two public universities of the state of Texas whose purpose is to develop and coordinate academic exchanges between its member institutions and universities throughout the world.

IIHEM students and graduates wishing to pursue their undergraduate or graduate studies in the United States can benefit from the general IIHEM-TIEC partnership agreement by applying through IIHEM for admission to one of the following TIEC institutions:
IIHEM students may also benefit from the many opportunities offered by academic exchange agreements recently signed with Murray State University (Kentucky, USA) and Jönköping International Business School (JIBS, SWEDEN).
