welcome to our community!
discover the stories…
It is been really fun, I have made a lot of friends. Even though it can get stressful at times, knowing that I have really good professors who are always here to help me no matter what…they are just an email away, so that has been really helpful.
Since I applied, the administration committee was so helpful, so cooperative.’,’They gave me everything I needed, all the information I needed, and they made the way much easier for me as a foreigner coming here for the first time.
I was searching where I could get a comprehensive and holistic knowledge about clinical research. I decided to settle here at UOC. In two words…I would say…amazing and awesome!
I think the academic program here at the University of Crete, is very strong and very personal to each person. I feel like they are really helping promote my academic career and overall creating a good sense of well-being. I have always really loved this island. It is extremely beautiful.
