The University of Indianapolis has a campus in Athens, Greece, that was chartered in 1989 to offer a quality American educational experience there. The Athens Campus includes 30 undergraduate and eight graduate programs.
In 1998 the University established a center in Tripolis, Greece, and in 2002, became a Cisco Networking Academy, offering courses in networking in cooperation with Cisco Systems.
The Athens Campus is located at the foot of the Acropolis and is the only wholly owned branch campus of a U.S. university operating in Greece. It is accredited by the North Central Association of Schools and Colleges, and is also a founding member of the Association of American Colleges in Greece.
The University sponsors the Odyssey in Athens study abroad program designed to provide American college students with a rich cultural experience in the birthplace of Western civilization while taking accredited upper level courses in their chosen fields of study alongside Greek and other international students.
The University also cooperates with AHEPA (the American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association) to sponsor "The Journey to Greece Program", a study tour that provides students with six transferable university credits. The required core course is Modern Greek Language, Society & Culture. For a second course, students will then choose between Greek Art, Architecture and Archaeology, or Olympics – the Origins.
