Шаблон:Infobox university Harokopio University of Athens, HUA (Шаблон:Lang-el) is a public research university based in Kallithea, Athens, Greece.
Founded in 1990, the 18th state University established in Greece, as the successor of the Harokopios Higher School of Home Economics (Шаблон:Lang-el) that was established in 1929. The university has ever since expanded to further scientific areas awarding bachelor's, master's, as well as doctoral degrees. Its small size, with about 120 academic and research staff, 80 administration personnel and 1000 undergraduate students, makes it a flexible academic institution.
History
The university is named after Panagis Harokopos (1835–1911), who took care of the founding and funding of a school oriented towards the production of scientific potential in Home Economics. To achieve his vision he bought a plot of 20,000 m2 in the borough of Kallithea, where between 1915 and 1920 the school was built. A new wing was added in 1959.[1]
This complex of buildings housed the "Harokopios Higher School" until 1990, when the Harokopio University was founded. The development of the university was based on international standards and scientific research that was conducted by the Institute of Regional Development of the Panteion University after request of the Ministry of Education.
Campus
The infrastructure of the university is of high level, in fact it was fully restored in 1993-1994 while a new building was erected in 1999–2000 to house the newly established Geography Department and the library. In 2011 a new building was completed in the area of Tavros, for the newly established Department of Informatics and Telematics and the university's Refrectory.[2]
