Studies
255 European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) credits are required for the department’s four-year Bachelor degree. 70% of the taught courses are compulsory to all students, while 30% are dedicated for specialisation in Archival studies, Library Science or Museology. There is also the option of mixing two of the three specialisations. Two postgraduate programmes of study are available: one of them leads to a Master’s Degree; the second leads to a Doctorate Degree (PhD).
All programmes of study are offered in Greek, while PhD studies can be accomplished in other languages (at the time, the department supports PhD students in English).
