Overview
The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Research Internship Program was designed to give students the opportunity to participate in research while experiencing another culture. Students are able to work closely with faculty members conducting research in a particular area of interest. This is a great way to enhance your engineering knowledge by engaging in current research.
Students will also have the opportunity to explore and be immersed in Greek culture. Thessaloniki is a port city located on the Thermaic Gulf of the Aegean Sea. It is filled with historic evidence of the Byzantine, Roman and Ottoman empires. The Rotunda is just one of the city's many historic sites.
