This is the class of 2024, the students who came to Greece from many parts of the world in 2020, and have now completed a broad program in classical studies, focusing on the archaeology, history, and philology of Ancient Greece. In addition to the eight semesters of full-time study they completed at the Athens School of Philosophy, the students of the class of 2024 participated in educational trips and on-site classes in archaeological sites and museums throughout the country, as well as in the educational archaeological excavation of the NKUA in Marathon (Plasi).

It should be noted that BAAG is the first foreign language full-time undergraduate studies program that operated in Greece in 2020, after long-term, coordinated efforts on behalf of the School of Philosophy and NKUA’s Central Administration.

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
