To qualify for the weekend excursions, you must receive the additional government grant AND place into a language class above the third-year level. These trips are the best part of the program -- so fight for the grant and study before your placement exam.

Final comments
The THYESPA Program is great but requires a fully independant student. At times, the University treats you like royalty -- especially on the weekend excursions -- but it fails in basic administration. Stay strong and fight for what you need, and don't be afraid to pick up the phone and call up strangers in broken Greek (it's the only way you'll find a place to live).

My overall experience with my university is really good. The professors are well educated, the level of education is very high but a drawback is that the facilities are lacking.

Personal comments
The opportunity for speaking in class is not what I would wish it to be. Again, students need to push themselves to use Greek at every opportunity. The grammar and reading/writing portions of the course were the highest emphasis. After completing the course, I spent a week on a Greek farm with relatives who do not speak any English. This was far more valuable (as far as speaking in everyday situations) than the six-week grammar-focused course at the National University.

“Undergraduate student in Master's Degree in Environmental and Agricultural Engnieering”

Engineering, Agronomy, 2021
Overall
As a motivated intern, I will bring a fearless creativity and youthful perspective to your team. Specifically, the first three years of my curriculum concern a thorough knowledge of the physical, technical, chemical and biological processes which govern and take place in all aspects of the applied agriculture. Over the next two years Ι got my specialization at environment and agricultural engineering (Integrated Master) with a focus on environment hydraulics, land improvement projects, as also, engineering modeling, automatic process control and renewable energy systems through sustainable principles. At this stage i am keen on to provide innovative solutions through emerging technologies in order to minize your inputs, thereby limitng carbon emissions.
