MISSION – VISION
The studies at the newly established Department of the University of Western Macedonia – first student intake in the academic year 2019-2020 – aim to educate students on state-of-the-art areas in Management Science and Technology.
More specifically, the mission of the Department is to provide education, research, and high-level training in the fields of Management Science that are directly related to Modern Technologies and Organisational Studies, utilising Informatics, Communication in decision-making, and quantitative methods, aiming at shaping business strategy and reorganising entrepreneurial activities.
Nowadays, New Technologies play a crucial role in the development and operation of Businesses and Organisations. At the same time, the demand for interface of business activities, the need for organisational transformation of Businesses/Organisations, and the pressure exerted by globalisation and international competition significantly differentiate the knowledge and skills that modern executives must possess. Taking these factors into account, the Curriculum of the Department of Management Science and Technology aims at preparing tomorrow’s executives through an interdisciplinary integration of Management and Technological scientific fields.
