Harvard and Columbia are coming to Greece, establishing branches for postgraduate and undergraduate studies in specific subjects, in collaboration with the University of Athens and the Technical University of Athens, through the university extroversion program promoted by the Hellenic Ministry of Education.
The arrival in our country of the top universities in the world is expected to attract huge interest.
In the first phase it will concern specific study programs, postgraduate and undergraduate, in which the admission of students will be done either through the Panhellenic Examinations or through a scholarship program.
The courses will be taught in English and the first department that is expected to operate from Harvard concerns the controversial subject of immigration studies.

The first step towards the implementation of these programs is the operation of a three-week Summer School, which has already been finalized for this year and will include a complete program of courses and activities developed by the two universities and will be operational in July.
As the rector of EKPA Thanos Dimopoulos stated in protothema.gr, “this action is the result of a systematic cooperation between professors of the schools of EKPA and Harvard who deal with immigration from many points of view, such as law, medicine and politics. This cooperation and the operation for the first time of the summer school, which emerged from a thorough search of all data, we hope to be a harbinger of the wider cooperation that will concern the creation of a postgraduate study program”.
