The MBA in Sustainability powered by Piraeus is the first MBA program in Greece to combine scientific knowledge in business administration with specialization in sustainability. As a result of a strategic collaboration between the Department of Business Administration of the University of Piraeus and Piraeus Bank, the program reflects our commitment to providing high-quality academic education—education that is contemporary, socially beneficial, and, most importantly, accessible, as it is offered tuition-free, with no tuition or enrollment fees.
In a rapidly changing world that demands modern skills, the MBA in Sustainability powered by Piraeus prepares the next generation of leaders capable of embedding sustainability principles at the core of business strategies and decision-making. At the same time, the program strengthens its international dimension through collaborations with leading and internationally recognized universities in the United States and Europe. Through educational initiatives and study trips, students gain a global perspective and deepen their understanding of modern management and sustainability practices within a multicultural environment.
The active participation of executives from Piraeus Bank in the teaching process offers students valuable exposure to real-world business practice, through experiential knowledge, best practices, and applied case studies.
