COURSES AND ASSESSMENT

The Department of Economics welcomes Erasmus students and makes its courses available to them, subject to the specific conditions, requirements, and arrangements of each course.

Apart from the four courses listed below, which are taught in English, courses in the Department are normally taught in Greek. In accordance with the applicable University regulations, courses may also be delivered in English for Erasmus students, while additional classes or supporting sessions in English may also be offered depending on the number of international students and the teaching arrangements of each course.

In practice, Erasmus students attending courses taught in Greek are commonly assessed through assignments, projects, or other coursework arranged in consultation with the course instructor or coordinator.
