Preparing the next generation of 
leaders in law, policy and public life

“I think it’s okay to say I was quite nervous when I first started at the ELGU. Nervous about the course and nervous about making friends. What really put me at ease though was when I first arrived at the campus in Sounion was the fact that all the staff were very friendly, welcoming and supporting. All in all, I enjoy that our School is of a small size because it allows students to really get to know their lecturers. The School as a whole demonstrates a willingness to support and help us out along the way. If we take into account the fact that we are creating new Societies for students to participate in, I believe that it is an excellent place to study and I recommend it to anyone.”

“What ELGU really excels at is providing students with the opportunity to pursue education that will allow them to acquire specific skills and professional growth. I'm thankful to the community of ELGU for the support and grateful for the great professors who encourage you all the way and challenge you to aim higher. Not to forget the moment you enter the premises of ELGU , you just fall in love with the grandeur and beauty of its old building rich with culture and history.”

“If you are contemplating to participate in a summer school, this summer school is by far the best one for a first experience. Either way I can strongly recommend applying for this summer school – it will be a truly enriching experience and you will definitely not regret it.”

“Hi my name is Sarra Ajroud, I’m a 21 years old student from Tunisia. I am currently enrolled in the MA in Governance program within the ELGU. Before coming here I did my BA in public law but deep down I’ve always wanted to continue my studies in Political Sciences, that is why I chose the MA in Governance program. Studying within the ELGU is a great experience, the courses are very effective, the professors are very helpful and I have learned and gained so much knowledge from the very start. On the plus side, living in Athens is a far greater experience. I think it’s an amazing city for students as you get to unravel both the ancient Greece culture and the Modern European lifestyle.”

“What I valued most about my time at the ELGU was how the program blended academic and legal education with real-world applicability. The international environment and practical focus - through case studies, interactive learning, and direct engagement with EU professionals - created a dynamic learning experience that went beyond traditional classroom instruction.”

“I am extremely grateful to the ELGU for having given me the opportunity to further specialize and develop my knowledge in the field of international affairs and, particularly, on India, which is perfectly in line with my academic specialization in South Asian studies. The post-graduate Master of Studies program I have pursued was completely tailor-made for me and this has been an invaluable experience.”

“This program offers a solid understanding of EU law, its institutional framework, and its impact on member states and elsewhere. The LLB in EU Law degree program is one of the best in that it offers an overview of the EU legal order, which is essential for developing the professional skills necessary for a career in international or EU law.”

“I chose the master’s in governance at ELGU for its strong focus on policymaking, international relations, and strategic governance. Given my background in social work, this program bridges theory and practice, equipping me with the skills to shape policies that have a meaningful impact on communities globally. For prospective students aiming to design policies that will have a meaningful impact globally, ELGU is your Choice.”
