Duration of Studies
The duration of studies for the award of the Diploma of Postgraduate Studies is defined as three (3) semesters of full-time study, which includes the time for the preparation of a thesis or the successful completion and examination of three elective courses instead of the preparation of a thesis. The maximum time allowed for the completion of studies is set at five (5) academic semesters. Exceptions to extend this formal maximum time limit may be made by the Assembly only for good cause. After the expiry of the extension generally provided for by the Rules of Study, the student shall be withdrawn from the programme.
A total of ninety (90) credit hours (ECTS) are required for the award of the MSc. During their studies, postgraduate students are required to attend and successfully complete postgraduate courses, research and writing of scientific papers, as well as the preparation of a postgraduate thesis. The courses are taught face-to-face but may also be taught through distance learning in Greek or English.
The cost of tuition fees is 4.500€ euro. The payment of the fee is made at the beginning of each semester on dates announced by the Secretariat of the Department. The amount of the pre-registration fee paid by the postgraduate student at the time of acceptance of his/her place in the MSc is deducted from the first semester.
