The idea of establishing a University in Greece emerged alongside with the Greek War of Independence, also known as the Greek Revolution. The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (NKUA), officially founded in April 14th, 1837, is the first University not only of Greece but both the Balkan peninsula and the Eastern Mediterranean region.
NKUA offers a wide range of study areas; over 68,000 students are currently enrolled in 43 undergraduate and 200 postgraduate programs or pursue doctoral studies. It was also the first University in Greece to launch a program, all the courses of which, are taught in English, exclusively for international students, the “BA program in the Archaeology, History, and Literature of Ancient Greece” by the School of Philosophy and more such programs in various fields of science and arts, like medicine, economics etc are soon anticipated.
