Higher education in Greece is divided into two parts: the university sector, which includes universities, national technical universities, and schools of fine arts; and the technological sector, which includes technological educational institutes. The purpose of university education is to provide opportunities for scientific research and to offer high-level, comprehensive theoretical and applied training to future scientists in Greece and around the world, helping students develop science and technology and achieve success. Technological education also develops scientific and technological research but offers programs with a more practical focus. Therefore, the range of educational programs in Greece is broad and diverse, from which all students can benefit.
