Social Impact

    AUEB鈥檚 social impact comprises one of its most strongly-held values and shapes its identity, its strategy and its everyday operations. The adoption of this value has two complementary and mutually-reinforcing objectives. On the one hand, AUEB aims to educate and develop responsible, scientifically-competent researchers, professionals and citizens who will act and lead, guided by the principles of sustainability and social responsibility. On the other hand, it also aims to render the University a research and educational institution that provides added value to the sustainable development of the economy and of society in general.
