Aristotle University of Thessaloniki - AUTH Speciality : Politics
programme: Political Science

Aristotle University of Thessaloniki has its good and its bad side. First of all, the campus is huge and relaxing there on the sunny days takes all the stress away. Secondly, the he classes can be easy or hard, it usually depends on the professor to be honest. It is not easy to graduate if your professors are strict. The classrooms depending on which department you are are different. They may have air-conditioning and be super clean or they can be super cold/hot with half the furniture broken and not enough space for all the students. I would recommend it to someone wanting to study in Greece because compared to other institutions it is way better than the average. If though someone has options outside Greece I would definitely suggest picking one of those.

The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki was my first choice when deciding where I wanted to go while I was still in High School. I knew I wanted to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and having read though its curriculum, I was positive that it was the perfect choice for not just me, but anyone who wanted to pursue the same degree. Three years now into studying there, I can positively say that I was not let down; instead, my expectations where exceeded by a lot. If there was one thing I could change, would be to perhaps have a little less philosphy lessons. Overall, my experience is great.

Very professional and qualified professors. Free books and articles provided by the university and faculties. Lots of good functioning facilities like the library, the gym etc. A lot of opportunities for projects and programs (f.e. Erasmus exchange and internship) sponsored by the university. I would only recommend my university to have more organization (overall), and the faculties to have better facilities and accommodations (f.e. better classes and buildings).
