The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine has established a formal educational agreement with the University of Patras, the third largest university in Greece, to collaborate on research and on student and faculty exchanges. The two schools will officially begin their new collaboration on April 11, 2008, when representatives from the 43-year-old Greek public institution visit Johns Hopkins to sign the agreement, championed by leading Greek-American businessman and philanthropist John G. Rangos, Sr., a member of the Johns Hopkins Medicine Board of Visitors and a longtime benefactor of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.

Greece stands at the geopolitical crossroads of Europe, the Balkans, and the Mediterranean. Studying in Greece, among other things, offers employment opportunities in business, commerce, finance, technology, travel, banking, journalism, media, education, law, and gives a competitive edge in many professions. Many foreign students choose to study in Greece for various reasons, one of them being the attraction to classical civilisation as that by which all other civilizations are measured. Its roots are still present in modern-day Greece.

The Athens University "Modern Greek Language Teaching Centre" is a member of the "Association of Language Testers in Europe" and certifies the required level of knowledge of Greek for the matriculation of foreign students in any Greek University. In addition to teaching Greek to foreigners, the Centre oversees a post-graduate training course for teachers of Greek as a Foreign Language that leads to a Master’s degree.

The "College Year in Athens," a study abroad programme focused upon the Greek history and civilization, offers foreign students university-level courses focused on Greece and the East Mediterranean world. In addition to classes taking place in Athens, an interesting annual learning project is held on the island of Paros.
