UoA - University of the Aegean / Panepistimio Aigaiou

The University of the Aegean is an international research oriented university. It is an inspiring, innovative, socially committed institution situated in the Aegean Archipelago, the ancient cradle of knowledge.

The UoA embodies the concept of a 'university- network' - a network of schools and departments, dispersed over six Aegean islands: Lesvos (Mytilene), Chios (Chios), Samos (Karlovasi), Rhodes (Rhodes), Syros (Ermoupolis) and Lemnos (Myrina). The challenge of academic and administrative decentralization has resulted in imaginative new approaches in academic practice and has enhanced the sense of unity within the academic community of each campus. It is the network structure that fostered the early and full incorporation of Information and Communication Technologies in every day practice.
