University of MacedoniaInnovation Extroversion Excellence Quality Cooperation

University of : In the foreground of a changing world.

In a rapidly changing world, the University of Macedonia (UοM) is aware of its obligation to be in the foreground of innovation, extroversion and excellence in terms of social sensitivity and inclusion. Heading for its seventh decade of operation, the UoM is currently developing into an internationally-oriented, innovating institution, placing teaching and research as its highest priorities rooted on solid and transparent assessment criteria. At the same time it is a well organized, functional, ecologically-minded and student-friendly institution, defining its own identity, which is acknowledged by both the local and the wider Greek society.

The UoM interacts both with the local society and the international academic community in order to adapt to the new era relying on the core values of open dialogue, cooperation, equal opportunities and forward-looking perspective. We are convinced that no progress is worth making, if it cannot be shared with the wider society.
