Bachelor degree at UOC
Students are accepted to bachelor's programs at UOC based on the results of entrance exams.
The city campus of UOC provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Irakleion has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. Students have access to the extensive scientific library of the university. The collection of scientific papers helps them in conducting research. Foreigners who come to UOC through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
