Courses

The aim of the college is to offer closely to the needs of the Ionian Islands tailored education. It should also attract young people to the islands, as these were still suffering from brain drain. Office of the Management and the Bureau is Argostoli. The six departments are spread over four sites on the three islands of Lefkada, Kefalonia and Zakynthos. Due to the geographical distance, these enjoy greater independence. In addition to the studies usually also postgraduate courses and distance learning programs are offered.
