William Carey International University (WCIU) is a private, unaccredited university in Pasadena, California, USA. It is affiliated with several Christian cross cultural non-governmental organizations.
The institution was founded in 1977 by Ralph D. Winter, a Presbyterian missiologist who also established the U.S. Center for World Mission. The campus is on the Venture Center, a collaborative mission base on a 17-acre campus in Pasadena. The school also publishes books on culture and global issues. It is named for William Carey (1761 – 1834), a British missionary who worked in India.
William Carey International University and its degree programs are unaccredited by any regional or national accrediting body. The California Bureau for Private Postsecondary Education allows the school to grant unaccredited M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in International Development. The Christian education organization the International Council for Higher Education has also validated these programs.
