University of the Aegean
The University of the Aegean is an international research oriented university. It is an inspiring, innovative, socially committed institution situated in the Aegean Archipelago, the ancient cradle of knowledge.
The University of the Aegean embodies the concept of a ‘university- network’- a network of schools and departments, dispersed over five Aegean islands: Lesvos, Chios, Samos, Rhodes and Syros. The challenge of academic and administrative decentralization has resulted in imaginative new approaches in academic practice and has enhanced the sense of unity within the academic community of each campus. It is the network structure that fostered the early and full incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies in every day practice.
The University of the Aegean invests in innovative educational programs and multidisciplinary fields of research that correspond to the needs of the modern world. It has led the way in the introduction of new undergraduate and postgraduate disciplines such as environmental studies, ICT’s, multimedia and design, humanities, Mediterranean studies, making the UoA a pioneering and competitive institution at Greek nd European level.
