The duration of studies leading to the award of the Master’s Degree (D.M.S.) of the IPSP (Interdepartmental Postgraduate Studies Program) is set at four (4) academic semesters, each lasting at least thirteen (13) teaching weeks. Each semester corresponds to thirty (30) ECTS Credits (totaling 120 ECTS for the program). This period also includes the time for the completion of a Practicum and for the preparation and submission for assessment of the Master’s Thesis (M.Th.), if applicable.

The permitted duration for completing the requirements to obtain the Master’s Degree is a minimum of four (4) academic semesters and a maximum of up to six (6) academic semesters. However, in exceptional cases, a suspension of studies may be granted by decision of the PSC (Program Steering Committee), and this suspension period will not be counted towards the total required duration for the award of the Master’s Degree (D.M.S.).

The IPSP is completed with the award of a Master’s Degree (D.M.S.), at level seven (7) of the National and European Qualifications Framework, in accordance with Article 47 of Law 4763/2020.

Successful completion of studies is determined by successful performance in the courses of the IPSP (including the Practicum) and the successful completion of a Master’s Thesis, where applicable.
