Best business university in Greece!!

Athens University of Economics and Business is the best university in Greece to study Economics, Finance, and Business Administration in my opinion. Students have many opportunities to expand their knowledge, challenge themselves and broaden their horizons through many courses. Even if the students have not decided exactly where they want to specialize there is a wide variety of courses to choose from. Most professors are easily reachable to solve any questions and help students become successful at what they wish to do. The location and the facilities though do not stand up to the expectations I had from such a university.

A lot left to be desired

You can study and get a degree here, but the university in itself cares little about students and does very little to help when needed. Guidelines are very vague and facilities are not built for as many students as are accepted.

Student in 2013

I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
