Panteion University of Athens

|
The Panteion University of Athens has a 75-year history: the history of a creative development linked not only to the course of Higher Education and the development of Social Sciences in Greece, but also to the wider social transformation of our country. It is therefore worth providing a brief account of the University’s foundation and its evolution to the present day.
The foundation of the Panteion University, formerly known as the “Panteion University of Political Science” for many years, is linked to the names of Georgios Frangoudis and Alexandros Pantos, the founder and the great benefactor of the University respectively.
