Athens Campus
UNIC Athens occupies a contemporary campus designed to support academic excellence while enhancing the student experience. Spanning multiple specialist facilities, the campus integrates teaching spaces, research laboratories, and student-centred areas that foster both learning and community.
The academic heart of the campus comprises 14 teaching rooms and two amphitheatres, complemented by 10 specially designed Problem-Based Learning (PBL) rooms that facilitate collaborative learning and interactive teaching methods. These spaces are equipped with advanced technology to support modern pedagogical approaches.
UNIC Athens Campus Phase 1 – 2025
The UNIC Athens Campus is being developed in three phases, beginning in Fall 2025 with a 12,500-square-metre facility adjacent to The Ellinikon development and later expanding into project itself. The initial campus features comprehensive teaching and research facilities, including 43 specialised laboratories, two amphitheatres with 335-seat capacity, and dedicated clinical skills facilities with 19 OSCE examination rooms, supporting medical simulation and interdisciplinary research.
UNIC Athens Campus Phase 2-3 (2028-2031)
The second and third development phases carry UNIC Athens fully into the heart of The Ellinikon’s smart-city. A reserved build-allowance of 75,000 m² (on top of the 12,500 m² Phase 1 gateway) raises total campus capacity to roughly 112,500 m², enough to rank among Europe’s flagship research complexes . Site works begin in 2026, and the first student cohort is scheduled to enter in the 2028-29 academic year, with the remaining facilities delivered by 2030 . The new buildings sit a 15-minute walk from the Phase 1 hub and plug directly into Ellinikon’s tram, cycle-path and pedestrian network, binding university life to the Riviera’s parkland, boardwalk and metro links.
