The Athens School of Law is committed to preparing its graduates with a deep and broad understanding of the law. We focus on fostering legal reasoning and equipping students with the skills to interpret and apply legal principles across various fields with confidence and precision.
Our approach goes beyond traditional legal instruction. We recognize law as a cultural science, shaped by its relationship to history, economics, society, culture, and philosophy. To truly understand the law, students must grasp not only the rules but also the purpose behind each legislative measure and the competing interests that lawmakers seek to balance. This approach helps students master the complexities of legal reasoning and adapt to the ever-evolving legal landscape.
Our core mission is to provide a rich, forward-thinking academic experience that empowers students with the knowledge and qualifications to excel in today’s dynamic professional, academic, and technological world. We strive to create a learning environment that encourages research, knowledge integration, and collaborative engagement among students. Our study spaces are designed to inspire, becoming hubs of discovery and cooperation where students develop their understanding of legal scholarship.
The School's curriculum balances broad foundational knowledge with opportunities for specialization and self-directed exploration. Courses are organized into three categories:
We are also dedicated to ensuring equal opportunities for all students, including those with disabilities. Customized support services, accessible technologies, and internet resources are available to create an inclusive, supportive learning environment.
As Greece’s first and most historic law school, we are continually enhancing the level of education we offer, aligning with the standards of leading European law schools. Our vision is to develop a modern Greek and European identity rooted in humanitarian values, ready to meet the demands of legal practice today.
