The total number of ECTS credits required for the acquisition of the Master’s Degree (M.Sc.) is seventy-five (75), with a duration of one academic year, structured into two (2) academic semesters and the summer period (intensive program – 75 ECTS). The eight (8) offered courses (60 ECTS credits) are distributed across the first two semesters (A and B), while the preparation and submission of the Master’s Thesis (15 ECTS) takes place during the summer period. The language of instruction for the courses is Greek, while the Master’s Thesis can be written in either Greek or English.

Each compulsory course comprises thirty-nine (39) teaching hours.

Successful completion of all offered courses is required to obtain the M.Sc. The following table presents the academic credits per course and for the entire program. Each ECTS corresponds to 25 hours of workload.

The detailed program of the three terms of the M.Sc. is structured as follows:

1st Semester

Total ECTS for 1st Semester: 30

2nd Semester

Total ECTS for 2nd Semester: 30

Summer Period

Each course is taught by one or more instructors. For each course, a coordinator is appointed by the School Assembly, upon recommendation by the Coordinating Committee of the M.Sc.

Courses will be delivered through a blended learning system (in-person, synchronous and asynchronous distance learning). The proportion of hours delivered via distance learning will be determined in accordance with the prevailing legal framework. The exact distribution between in-person and distance teaching hours for the program’s courses will be decided by the School Assembly, based on recommendations from the Coordinating Committee. A detailed description of each course is provided in its corresponding syllabus, which is uploaded to the program’s e-learning platform (eClass) and updated by the course coordinator.
