Welcome from the director
Greetings from the Director of the MSc in “Energy: Strategy, Law & Economics”
I would like to warmly welcome you to the MSc in “Energy: Strategy, Law & Economics” of the Department of International and European Studies of the University of Piraeus. Our MSc progrmme is one of the very few of its kind in Europe focusing on the study of the major dimensions of Energy in a multidisciplinary and multidimensional way, making it an innovative Master’s programme.
Our MSc was inaugurated in 2014 achieving great success and being warmly welcomed both by the academia and the business sector. Since 2017, adapting to the developments in the Energy sector, it has been offered as a programme where English is the language of instruction - a change met with great enthusiasm, which further contributed to the programme’s recognition on an international level. The MSc is addressed to graduates and technocrats alike, aspiring to support them in gaining the knowledge and skills they need in order to meet the demands of the energy sector and policy, while deepening their understanding of a sector that is highly interrelated with society, industry and economy. At the same time, our MSc promotes specialization on the energy sector, as well as on numerous other sectors, such as networks and infrastructure, environment, industry and shipping industry, international organizations, Greek and international energy business, public administration at a national and supranational level, the regulatory authorities, the media, institutes and think tanks, business consulting companies, law firms and the diplomatic corps.
Constantly taking into consideration the international challenges in the sector of energy and energy resources combined with the geopolitical significance of Greece, our aim is to offer you the necessary tools and knowledge to participate actively in the energy developments at a national, European and international level.
Our MSc is highly interdisciplinary as proven by its curriculum and the faculty. Distinguished professors, legal experts, economists, international relations specialists as well as engineers from the University of Piraeus, other leading universities and research centers in Greece and abroad are among the members of our faculty team. Of course, the principal motive of our tireless effort to maintain and improve the already high-quality studies we offer, is the exceptional level of our students, who are the best quality ambassadors of our MSc.
Our goal is to provide cutting-edge knowledge and expertise in the energy sector. I hope that your experience in our Master’s programme will be rich, fruitful and that it will provide you with the necessary knowledge and invaluable skills required to reach your goals. We are looking forward to welcoming you to our programme and to contributing to the fulfillment of your dreams and aspirations.
Sincerely,
