“Not only did I get to study a fascinating programme, but I was also able to develop my personal and social skills in the process. In addition, UNIC students benefit from brilliant professors and staff, willing to guide and help them at any given point and under any circumstance. I was also lucky enough to meet my, then, classmate, and subsequent business partner today!”
Kalia Demetriadou, International Relations & European Studies, Class of 2007

“My experience at UNIC was worthwhile from every point of view! I had the opportunity to study in an exciting field, which is now growing exponentially given international and European Union developments. Not only did I acquire the necessary knowledge to work in this field, I also received high quality training in critical thinking, which has since allowed me to prepare a great deal of complex European research, innovation and lifelong learning projects. I was fortunate to meet great people from around the globe, and be taught by brilliant professors, who were and still are with me, every step of the way. I had such a great experience back then, that I’ve come back “asking for more” – I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor in Law (LLB) at UNIC. As a bonus, I met my present business partner here.”
