The University of Thessaly was founded in 1984. Though newly founded, it has demonstrated remarkable work in the course of its life.

Since its founding 18 years ago, it has been operating with 4 faculties, 16 undergraduate departments, 3 elective study programs and 5 post-graduate programs.

During all those years of its operation, the University of Thessaly has given particular importance to the cultivation of principles that upgrade science with the aim to offer the best possible services to man and the public in general.
