Graduates of the country’s university departments (A.E.I. and former T.E.I.), recognized foreign institutions of a related subject, and graduates of Higher Schools of the Armed Forces, are admitted to the Master's Program in Health Care Management.

The study duration is three (3) academic semesters from the student's enrollment in the Program. In the first two semesters, the lectures of the program courses are held by distance learning in which students are required to participate. Students also write assignments within their courses during the first two academic semesters. And at the end of the semesters, there is an examination period for the courses they have been taught. Finally, in the third semester, a thesis is written by the students under the supervision of a faculty member. Once completed, two examiners are appointed for each student who evaluate the thesis in collaboration with the supervisor.

Tuition fees amount to 3,480 euros and are paid in six instalments (split over three semesters - two instalments per semester).

Tuition fee waivers are available for up to 30% of students based on income criteria, which are considered following the assessment of admission applications. Based on the current legislation (Article 86, Law 4957/2022), a degree (equal to or greater than 7.5) is a prerequisite for examining an exemption application. The submission of applications for fee waivers takes place after the admission process is completed. This student right is defined in par. 4 of article 86 of Law 4957/2022. In addition, granting scholarships based on academic criteria is approved at a rate of 5% of the enrolled students. These are based on the student’s grades during the first and second semesters.

The maximum annual number of admissions has been set to forty (40) students.

Admission criteria include diploma’s (“ptychio”) average grade, computer knowledge (e.g. ECDL), second foreign language (level B2 and above), presentations at conferences, publications, training programs of more than 100 hours, etc. They are detailed in Article 3 of the Program Operating Regulations. Professional experience is counted regardless of subject. The evaluation process also includes an interview by a three-member committee.

For the first two academic semesters, the course lectures (12 lectures per course – 4 courses per semester) are held every Monday afternoon (from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.) and Saturday morning (from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.). This timetable is meant to facilitate participation by working students.

The operation of the graduate Program in Health care Management is described in detail in its Study Regulations (Government Gazette 1814/22.03.2023).
