Greece is taking bold steps to extend its charm beyond its famous coastlines and historic ruins by becoming a hub for global education. Spearheaded by Education Minister Kyriakos Pierrakakis, the country is introducing legislation that opens doors for foreign universities to set up local campuses. This initiative aims to blend the appealing Greek lifestyle with quality English-language education.
The proposed law outlines specific criteria for foreign universities looking to expand into Greece:
This move greatly enhances the Golden Visa program, which provides residency to non-EU investors, by adding access to high-quality education. It’s expected to attract more families seeking both a beautiful place to live and excellent educational opportunities, making Greece a more attractive choice for settling down.
For students looking to join these new institutions:
This initiative represents a shift towards a more diverse and enriched educational landscape in Greece, traditionally known for its state-run universities. By welcoming top international universities to open branches, Greece is positioning itself as a premier destination for education. This development not only enriches Greece’s educational offerings but also strengthens the Golden Visa program’s attractiveness to a global audience.
