Welcome to the Department of Economics at the University of Piraeus, one of the core components of our institution since its creation as the “School of Industrial Studies” in the interwar period.

This success is confirmed by the career outcomes of our graduates, who hold distinguished leadership positions in Greece and abroad, as well as by the distinctions received by the faculty members of the Department. At the same time, our strong research infrastructure, innovative teaching methods and the continuous interaction between teachers and students create a fertile environment for learning and progress.
The values that define us are:
* Innovation & Creativity: Encouraging new ideas, methods and solutions in education and research.
* International Perspective: Promoting the Department as a knowledge hub with global reference and networking.
* Critical Thinking & Responsibility: Strengthening independent thinking and a responsible attitude towards society and the economy.

Sotirios Karkalakos
Professor
The Department of Economics has a single long term goal: to contribute to the creation of high quality knowledge and research in the field of Economics.
The four-year Undergraduate Program consists of a multitude of core courses on foundational subjects of economics and electives that focus on contemporary issues, thus providing both a theoretical background and the empirical knowledge necessary to comprehend complex economic issues. Additionnally, the Program gives its students the opportunity to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility program – the EU’s flagship student exchange program – as well as internship opportunities in a variety of industries.
At the postgraduate level, the Department offers five Master’s programs that lead to a corresponding degree(Master of Science – M.Sc.):
- Economic & Business Strategy
- Health Economics & Management
- Economics of Education and Management of Educational Units
- Bioeconomy, Circular Economy and Sustainable Development
- Applied Public Economics & Policy
Additionnally, the Department offers a Ph.D. program in Economics, as well as Post-Doc opportunities.
For more information, please visit the “Studies” tab.
Our graduates enjoy an excellent reputation and are well-appreciated by both the private and public sector in the country, while many of our former students hold positions in top EU or US schools. The above factor is reflected in international rankings (e.g. our Department is ranked 200-300 in the Academic Ranking of World Universities – ARWU, also known as Shanghai Ranking).
The quality of research in our Department is reflected in the amount of leading journals that publish our work, the competence of existing and recently hired academic staff, the recruitment of talented Ph.D. and Post-Doc students, and the resources and activities devoted to research. For this purpose, the Department has 7 fully equipped University Labs specializing in research on cutting edge subfields of Economics. Namely:
- ETOS (Enterpreneurship, Technology and Economic Strategy Lab)
- TESMOL (Transport Economics and Sustainable Mobility Lab)
- LabHem (Health Economics and Management Lab)
- LORED (Local and Regional Development Lab)
- Bioeconomy and Sustainable Growth Laboratory
- EFMRCG (Economics of Financial Markets, Risk Management and Corporate Governance Lab)
- iLeads (Strategic Leadership & Digital Transformation Lab)
Additionnaly, the Department organizes two types of research seminars:
- The Internal Seminars, which are a platform to provide Ph.D. candidates the opportunity to present their own research activities, as well as to come in contact with the research of leading scientists
- The Joint Economic Research Seminar Series (JERS), which is an cooperation initiative between the Economics Departments of several Greek Universities for the joint organization of seminars and workshops, aiming at the advancement of research cooperation and learning. Our department functions as the host institution for this initiative.
Finally, the Department hosts the peer reviewed SPOUDAI – Journal of Economics and Business, an EconLit international journal (the only one of its kind in Greece).
The Department offers online courses through the University’s E-Learning platform. These are courses designed for people who wish to study applied economics issues with an aim to either improve their job market outlook or to enrich their professional knowledge portfolio.
