The Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB) is an institution which provides education both at the undergraduate and postgraduate level mainly in the fields of Economics, European and International Economics, Business Administration, Marketing, Accounting and Finance, Management, Technology, Informatics, Statistics, Decision Science. AUEB is a distinguished public learning institution which is known for the excellence of its faculty, students and academic programmes.
During a life-span of more than eight decades a considerable number of students in economics and business studies have graduated. It has also played a prominent role in the economic, social and political life of the country via its staff and graduates. It is our noble ambition to see that it will continue doing so at an even higher level. In a recent research carried out by Der Spiegel magazine, among 500 European Universities, AUEB ranked in the top 5% being listed in the 25th place. It is worth mentioning that, in the field of Econometrics, our University comes internationally in the 48th place according to the Journal of Econometric Theory.
The aim of our University is not only to provide its students with a sound command of theoretical principles and modern analytical tools, but also to develop in them certain qualities, such as individual initiative and critical thinking, which are necessary in order to resume a leading role in today?s rapidly changing world. To this end, a well balanced curriculum in the various scientific fields mentioned earlier, a computer center and an academic staff of high quality are contributing. Research, both theoretical and applied, has always been considered as one of the University's most important goals.
Great importance has also been attached to the development of graduate studies and to regular contacts with Universities and Research Institutes not only in the other European countries but also in North America and the rest of the world.
