All degree programmes are based on ECTS, and all courses are delivered in modules that allow students to focus on a single subject/module at a time. Thus, a normal semester-long course (for instance, a six ECTS credit course includes 28 learning hours) is delivered within a two week module that meets during evenings and weekends.
A “Diploma Supplement (DS)” is automatically awarded free of charge and in English to students upon completion of a programme. A sample DS for each programme can be viewed below.

  • Master of Business Administration (MBA) DS
  • Master of Public Sector Management (MPSM) DS
  • MSc in Business Management DS
  • MSc in Finanacial Services DS
  • MSc in Human Resource Management DS
  • MSc στην Εκπαιδευτική Ηγεσία και Διοίκηση DS
  • MSc in Business Intelligence & Data Analytics

Students are assigned an academic advisor at the time of registration and they should consult him/her regarding their registration to courses. The academic advisor will advise the student about courses and other academic matters.

Students are responsible to be present on the date and time specified for examinations as well as to complete all assignments associated with the courses they are taking. Registration to exams is compulsory and is done online through the intranet. Students who miss examinations for any reason will be allowed to take the exam the next time it is offered (free of charge) or request a make-up exam and pay the relevant fees. All assignment deadlines must be met. However, students are allowed a maximum of three extensions to be applied at their discretion. Each extension is worth three days and must be requested in advance by notifying in writing the Graduate Course Administrator.
