TESTIMONIALS

The Athens MBA proved to be a successful choice as it is designed to offer a balanced blend of knowledge from two very distinct fields: Business Administration and Engineering. It is indeed a bold, innovative combination that is effectively integrated into the curriculum, differing significantly from “traditional” MBA programs. I appreciated the instructors’ teaching experience, the guidance from the program’s management, and the support from the administrative staff. These elements create a strong academic community that embodies academic excellence.

The Athens MBA, combining the reputation of the two institutions, NTUA and AUEB, provided me with a comprehensive understanding and knowledge of Business Administration. The program’s courses cover the entire spectrum of business operations, and upon graduation, even though I already had significant work experience as an engineer, I also gained the knowledge to better meet the demands of my job at the management level.

In today’s evolving job market, an engineer must possess business acumen, the ability to understand market conditions, and the capacity to make the right decisions at the right time. The great advantage of the Athens MBA is that it specializes in the background of its students, offering a high-level graduate program in Business Administration, tailored to the way of thinking we were taught as engineers at the undergraduate level. This is the main reason why I chose the Athens MBA, and having completed my studies, I can say that I feel completely vindicated in my choice.

The Athens MBA has the power to create a multidisciplinary group of students, which gives everyone collectively, but also everyone separately, the opportunity to discover or further develop their ability to communicate and collaborate harmoniously and productively, with professionals from different fields. Through the program, I learned, as a practicing lawyer, to exchange creative ideas and scientific data with engineers, economists, and professionals from various fields, who make up the majority of the program’s students, and with whom, due to the nature of my work, I interact on a daily basis, broadening my knowledge and thereby enhancing my academic and professional standing in all areas.
