The Department’s curriculum is structured around a balance of subject areas and an integrated approach to the sciences—a combination essential for developing the professionals required for the new era. Characterized by internal coherence and innovation, the curriculum reflects the Department’s founding vision: to offer cutting-edge subjects—akin to those taught at universities in the world’s most advanced nations—while remaining attuned to the specific characteristics of the Greek economy.
In terms of academic content, the effort to achieve a balanced coverage of the exact sciences—engineering, mathematics, physics, and computer science—has resulted in a robust core curriculum in the engineering sciences. Furthermore, the Department possesses a strong interdisciplinary profile; it aims to cultivate the knowledge and skills that provide the Engineering-Economics and Management professional with a distinct profile—a comparative advantage—enabling them to serve as a vital link between the traditional engineering profile and highly specialized, cutting-edge fields. Thus, the strong aptitude of MOD students for mathematics and statistics—combined with computer programming skills—is effectively leveraged in advanced applications within business administration and decision-making, as well as in production systems, operations research, and project and operations management. Similarly, following a core set of informatics courses, MOD students can delve deeper into information systems and business process management. Finally, by focusing on a range of economics and finance courses—supported, once again, by a rigorous foundation in mathematics, statistics, and computer programming—students are given the opportunity to specialize in financial analysis and real-time, computer-aided financial decision-making.
A competitive curriculum, which aspires to remain at the forefront of scientific developments and to address the future needs of the market, must necessarily incorporate "on-the-job" student training—by integrating an internship program.
