International Hellenic University (IHU) was established in October 2005 and is Greece’s first state university, with programmes exclusively taught in English. IHU’s philosophy is based upon the following three concepts: a) Academic excellence, b) Practical relevance and c) International outlook. It already attracts a strong international academic faculty and outstanding students from Southeast and other European and Black Sea countries. We draw from, and build upon, the uniqueness of our multicultural student body while preparing students for the challenges of a rapidly changing global society.
