Athens University of Economics and Business.
Under the name Athens School of Commercial Studies, the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB) was founded in 1920. It was renamed the Athens School of Economics and Business in 1926, and it remained that name until 1989, when it became the Athens University of Economics and Business.
It is Greece's oldest university in the subjects of Economics and Business, with roots dating back to the founding of a Merchant Academy in Athens. Prior to 1955, the school only provided one degree in general economics and business. In 1955, the School's study period was extended from three to four years, with two cycles of study with two distinct degrees: one in economics and the other in business administration.
The university expanded to six departments in 1989. Since 1999, the university has grown even further, and it now has eight academic departments that provide eight undergraduate degrees, 28 master's degrees, and an equal number of doctoral programs.
Athens School of Commercial Studies has three schools and eight academic departments make up the Athens University of Economics and Business nowadays.
