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.

Greece’s research institutes, university laboratories and the private sector are forging relationships with partners from around the world, aiming to meet challenges in areas such as medicine, energy, the environment and information and communication technologies.

Researchers who wish to move to Greece may look at the National Research Foundation Researcher's Mobility Portal for assistance, information on research policies, fellowships and grants. The Practical Guide for Foreign Researchers is an essential manual for non-Greek scientists who visit and work in the country, assisting them in all matters.
