National Technical University of Athens
NTUA was structured according to the standards of the 'Continental' European system of engineering education, featuring a strong theoretical basis of studies, a standard duration of five years with an institutionalized weight of 300 teaching units, and a consequent equivalence to the 'Master' level of the Anglo-Saxon education system.

History
The National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) was founded in 1837 and is the oldest technological institution in Greece. It has 9 Schools, over 500 Faculty members, and approximately 150 institutionalized Laboratories. NTUA addresses modern social and technological issues by promoting advanced research and innovation. Simultaneously, it seeks to create bonds between science and education, and innovation and industry.
NTUA's significant national contribution and its attainment of an internationally distinguished position are due to its high standards, the high quality of both teaching staff and students, and a high level of technical infrastructure. Through the Special Account for Research Funds (ELKE NTUA), which is constantly modernized and expands its scope of activities, NTUA manages to self-finance itself through competitive research projects that yield innovative results.
During the establishment and first operational phase of SCIENCE AGORA (2022–2023), the Institute of Communication and Computer Systems (ICCS) participated as an independent entity within the Network. In the second operational phase of the Network (2025–2028), ICCS remains a partner, under the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).
