Description

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, founded in 1837, is the first university not only in Greece but also both the Balkan peninsula and the Eastern Mediterranean region. The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens is the largest state institution of higher learning in Greece, and among the largest universities in Europe. It is a self-governed legal entity of public law and all major policy issues are determined by the Ministry of National Education and Religion.

Retaining its academic autonomy, it fully respects the constitutionally secured right to everyone for a free education. This is possible because it is funded by the state. All funds are invested into the management and operation of educational, research and cultural programmes, and student and staff services and grants.

I study in the department of psychology, which is in the Philosophy department of the UOA. The professors are amazing, really well qualified and keen to help their students! The department offers the ability not only to master the school you have chosen, but also to participate in many extracurricular programs, such as Erasmus, and also gain general knowledge by giving us the possibility to choose classes from different departments of UOA such as history, law etc. All these are added to our CV, and in a way give us the ability to give our degree an orientation before our master. Studying and gaining university books is completely free. My only complaint is the lack of organisation in the department and the installation!

It’s my first year studying in the department of psychology, in the national and kapodistrian University of Athens! I’m fascinated by the opportunities offered by the department! The proffesors are really well qualified, keen to help their students and they work hard! The department itself not only offers lots of extracurricular programs, such as the Erasmus but also give us the option to choose 52% of our degree classes, giving us the chance to orient our degree before our master! Studying and getting university books is completely free! The website and the e-class work perfectly and make it really easy to use! The secretary is also really helpful, though it’s rarely available due to lack of staff! The main disadvantage for me is the lack of organisation in the department and the poor installation! The building doesn’t offer much and is too small for several classes with a big audience! Nevertheless, I believe that the advantages outweigh the cons!

The facilities are mediocre to good and I appreciate the work of the professors. I wouldn't recommend the Department of Mathematics to many people as it is a very hard degree to acquire and there's a lot of work to be done.

The facilities of the university are really good and new. The teachers are well-educated but some of them keep a distance from you as a university student. University students are polite and the teachers are willing to help you with the academic work that you have but help you also develop your character.

I study at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens for about 10 months in the Department of Economics. At first, i wasn't sure if this department was ideal for me … Although after all these months i strongly believe that University of Athens is able of giving me knowledge and skills which can fit in great range of science . Very helpful teachers with quality at every class, great facilities and students with high level of knowledge and care about what they want to achieve are 3 key things that every new member has for a guide.
