What our graduates say

The program provided an ideal blend of theory and hands-on experience in areas such as IT strategy, system security, and data analytics. I was encouraged to explore modern technological frameworks and contribute innovative ideas, which I later developed in my thesis. The professors provided valuable guidance and were always available to support our progress. I now feel well-equipped to navigate complex challenges in my field and continue advancing in my career with a strong academic foundation.

Georgios Antonakos, MSI ‘25

The courses helped me develop a scientific approach to identify what really matters in questions of business. Moreover, the accessibility and openness of the teachers, and their ability to direct my focus are very valuable. All this helped me get a promotion from Support Technician to the Information Security Department of my company.

As a professional and a student at the same time, I have gained knowledge through my MSc in Informatics and skills that have helped me in my everyday work tasks. In addition, I have met great people like professors and friends. The university’s staff is always helpful and offers guidance when needed, creating a very friendly environment for its students.
