Entry Requirements

An honours degree in any related subject to Earth Sciences and Engineering, preferably at upper second class level or above. Candidates holding an equivalent of a second class lower degree will also be considered. Professionals with different qualifications but relevant industrial experience – at least two years working experience in the Oil and Gas Industry – are also welcome to apply.

  • For international students who already hold a Foreign Higher Education Degree and who wish to pursue their studies in a Hellenic University a recognition/certificate of equivalence of their Diplomas is necessary, granted by DOATAP (the Greek Accreditation Center for Foreign University Degrees).
  • In the following link – http://62.103.84.30/2en.php – students can find a list of Foreign Higher Education Institutions, already recognized by Greek “NARIC”, which is the Hellenic “National Academic Recognition and Information Center”.
  • If the University you have graduated from is on the above mentioned list you do not need to take any further action. Otherwise, graduates of Bachelor’s or Master’s degree programs from foreign Universities not included in the list, are required to submit a written “Application” to DOATAP.
  • Obtaining this certificate before the beginning of the academic year does not constitute part of the selection process. Applicants whose previous Universities are not included in the NARIC list are welcome to apply for our Program and are advised to inform our Admissions team on this matter through their application form.
  • International applicants selected for the Program will receive further assistance from our Administration team towards completing this procedure during the first semester of their studies.

For these two years Master’s degree program, total tuition fees of 5.200 Euros apply. This amount must be paid in two installments, before the beginning of the 1st (2.600 Euros) and the 3rd Semester (2.600 Euros). Every International Student who wish to join the taught postgraduate program “Hydrocarbon Exploration and Exploitation”, should know that, in order to secure his/her place at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, a deposit of 1,000 Euros towards the tuition fee will be required. International students will only be required to pay the deposit once a place to this MSc Program has been confirmed. For this to happen every International student, meeting the Academic and English language requirements, has to reply to our offer and firmly accept it. Then, every International student will receive an email request when he/she is required to pay the deposit. The payment of this deposit may also assist every International student in applying for an immigration visa, if necessary. If your fees will be paid by a sponsor or a Company, or you are in receipt of a scholarship, a formal letter from the Company, the State or the sponsor confirming the arrangement is required. If this is the case you will be exempt from the tuition fee deposit.
