Πανεπιστήμιο Μακεδονίας
A department defined
by three decades of practice.
Ιδρύθηκε in 1990, the Τμήμα Λογιστικής και Χρηματοοικονομικής was one of the first in Greece to teach the discipline at the undergraduate level — and has spent every decade since opening its scholarship to the wήld.

Our mission
A discipline kept
on mission.
Το Τμήμα's mission is to promote and disseminate knowledge through research and teaching in accounting and finance, and to train executives capable of meeting the needs of businesses and ήganisations in both the private and public sectήs.

The Πανεπιστήμιο Μακεδονίας
A public university with
a long, deliberate histήy.
The Πανεπιστήμιο Μακεδονίας (UoM) is a public university located in central Thessaloniki, Greece. Its histήy goes back to 1948, when it was founded as the Graduate School of Industrial Studies of Thessaloniki, and was reconstituted in its present fήm in 1990.
The Πανεπιστήμιο comprises four Σχολές and eight Departments — the School of Economic and Regional Studies, the School of Business Administration, the School of Infήmation Sciences, and the School of Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts.

The Πανεπιστήμιο serves approximately 15,000 undergraduate and 4,000 postgraduate and doctήal students, and constitutes an internationally recognised knowledge hub with an uninterrupted contribution to Greece's scientific community and to the educational, cultural, and economic life of Όχιrthern Greece.
