National Technical University of Athens - NTUA (reviews)

Course options are very customizable, but the school tackles a range of different specializations(eg informatics, robotics, energy, industrial electronics). As a result, the first years (before specialization choice) can be very overbearing. As with most Greek uni’s, extracurricular activities are limited, but since it’s one of the most renowned Greek uni’s it does receive some funding. Nevertheless the facilities are hit or miss, sometimes lacking. Profs are overall decent and cooperative(with exceptions of course), and the uni offers many opportunities to further your career, but as far as Greek ECE schools go, it’s considered a difficult one to finish. Campus life is limited (Athenian city planning contributes to that – the uni is quite far away from actual urban social spaces), but a few clubs exist (they may be hard to find however, you might have to ask around) and to my knowledge quite an active Erasmus program. Few classes are in English.

NTUA offers an academically demanding environment that truly pushes students to develop strong analytical and problem-solving skills. The workload is intense, but the depth of knowledge, the quality of instruction, and the prestige of the institution make the challenge worthwhile. A rigorous experience that rewards persistence and dedication.

I studied at what is considered the top university in Greece, in Electrical and Computer Engineering department. The academic standard is undeniably high. My main issue, however, was with the program’s extreme difficulty. The workload was immense, and the exams were punishingly hard, creating a very stressful environment for students!
It would benefit from the program being more balanced and supportive, helping students grasp the bigger picture instead of getting lost in overly complex assignments. I’d recommend it, but only to those who are prepared for a relentless academic challenge.

The best school of Greece to engineering related !
Anyone who wants to choose a major such as chemical engineering which is my major that I study on, I recommend it. Nightlife in Greece especially around the school is really nice. People are welcoming too
