The MSc in Shipping, Trade & Transport adopts the principles of the quadruple helix model:

  • Courses contribute to the achievement of the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
  • MSc Thesis topics related to research conducted by the Department on cutting-edge issues and business needs. The 25@25 initiative, in the context of the celebration of the 25 years of the MSc in Shipping, Trade and Transport, concerns topics that have been drawn from the business and institutional bodies of the sector.
  • The operation of the MSc, educational and research, joins and utilizes the possibilities offered by the institutional/governmental bodies of research and education in Greece, the European Union and internationally.
