Undergraduate Studies

The Department of Digital Systems of the University of Piraeus was founded in 1999 and covers two important fields:

  • Network-Oriented Systems and Services
  • Telecommunication Systems and Networks

The transition to the Society of Information requires the emergence of skilled scientists capable of contributing to the development, implementation and management of modern digital technology systems.

On this basis, the Undergraduate Programme of Studies of the Department provides the following majors of study are available:

  • Major in “Telecommunications & Networks” (T&N)
  • Major in “Software & Data Systems” (SDS)
  • Major in “Computational Infrastructures & Services” (CIS)
  • Horizontal Major in “Security” (SEC)
  • Horizontal Major in “Teaching Qualification” (ICT)

The Department of Digital Systems offers a four-year Undergraduate Programme of Studies which corresponds to 240 credits of the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) and awards, upon successful completion, a Bachelor’s degree in “Digital Systems”.

The preparation of a Doctoral Dissertation (D.D.) is governed by the relevant provisions and aims to create scientists capable of contributing to the progress of science through high-quality scientific research. Holders of a Master’s Degree (M.Sc.) are eligible to apply for a doctoral thesis. In exceptional cases, non-Masters degree holders may be admitted as doctoral candidates (Ph.D.).

Candidates for a doctoral thesis must have at least the following qualifications: (a) A degree or diploma from a higher education institution in Greece or an equivalent foreign degree recognised by the I.O.A.T.A.P., and (b) A certificate of sufficient knowledge of English. Foreign candidates must have an adequate knowledge of Greek.

Post-doctoral Studies

The Department of Digital Systems of the University of Piraeus offers the possibility of postdoctoral research by PhD students from either Greek or foreign universities in collaboration with faculty members of the Department.

Post-doctoral research within the Department is a source of collective excellence, high-level scientific collaboration and international distinction for the Department and the University in general. In these ways, postdoctoral research contributes to the quantitative and qualitative upgrading of research in the Department and to the transfer of know-how in new and dynamic research fields for the benefit of society and the national economy.
