Tuition fees amount to 2100 euros. Up to 30% of the participants and depending on the financial criteria described in Law No 4485/2017 can be given a full scholarship for the entire duration of the program

The program lasts three semesters. The first semester includes 5 courses common to both specializations. The second semester, 1 common course and 3 specialization courses, and the third, 1 course for each specialization and the Master’s Thesis.

The program offers 2 specializations:

• The first includes the Teaching of Foreign Languages/Cultures, Multilingualism and Modern Educational Technologies and
