BIMM University (BIMM) is a private university specialising in music, film, performing arts and creative technology. The university is principally based in the United Kingdom with other centres in Ireland and Germany.

It is organised into four academic schools: BIMM Music Institute, Institute for Contemporary Theatre, Screen and Film School, and Performers College. Courses are delivered at eight city-based campuses located across the UK, Ireland and Germany.

It was founded in 2001 as the Brighton Institute of Modern Music, changing its name to the British and Irish Modern Music Institute in 2011 upon the opening of its Dublin campus, before shortening to BIMM Institute in 2018.

It was granted university status in 2022, and the name changed to the present one.
