European University Cyprus was established as Cyprus College in 1961 and was granted university status in 2007. Over the last decade, the university has fostered a culture of modernization that has resulted in levels of growth that have exceeded all expectations, upgrading the quality of tertiary education in Cyprus and defining a clear international orientation for the university and the country.
By integrating teaching, research and experiential learning in the curricula as well as practical fieldwork, the EUC academic model seeks to make student education an enriching and rewarding experience but also one that lays out the first solid steps towards a student’s professional goals.
