The International Hellenic University (IHU) was established in October 2005, in accordance to Law No. 3391. The University is comprised of three Schools: The School of Economics and Business Administration, the School of Humanities and Science, the School of Technology. All degrees in IHU are taught in English.
The IHU is financed by the European Union and the Greek state, and is targeted towards students from South-East European countries.
Within the School of Economics and Business Administration, the first group of 35 students started studying in the Executive MBA Program at IHU on March 28th, 2008. The students come to IHU's Thessaloniki campus one weekend per month, for intensive class time, and continue studying at home, and communicate online, until the next intensive weekend. The faculty in the EMBA program are currently visiting professors from well-respected academic institutions in the UK and Greece.
The School Economics and Business Administration will start two new Master Programs in January of 2008: MSc in Management, and MSc in Banking and Finance. There will also be a new intake of students admitted in the Executive MBA program in October of 2008.
