Services

The Statistics department offers a plethora of electronic services to undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as to the faculty and administrative personnel. Some of these services are listed below:

e-Γραμματεία

In this link, one can:

  • Students can fill out the Courses Application.
  • Instructors can file grades for the examined courses.
  • Look at student’s analytical grades list.

E-mail

Every user has the right to an email of the type user_name@aueb.gr on the University’s server, which is managed by the Network Operations Center. Instructions can be found here.

Wireless Access

The University offers wireless access to its network, in all members of the academic community and more specifically, to all that have an email/ dial-up account at the University (Faculty, administrative staff, undergraduate and postgraduate students etc). The connection is achieved by using a laptop with the appropriate wireless network card, while wireless access points are available in most of the University's premises. More information about the wireless network and the University's broadband services can be found here.

E-Class

The Open eClass of the AUEB platform is a complete Course Management System that supports Asynchronous eLearning Services via a simple web browser. Its goal is the incorporation and constructive use of the Internet and web technologies in the teaching and learning process. It supports the electronic management, storage and presentation of teaching materials, independently of the spatial and time limiting factors of conventional teaching and creating the necessary conditions for a dynamic teaching environment. It can be found here.

Eduroam Network:  

Eduroam (education roaming) is the secure, world-wide roaming access service developed for the international research and education community. It allows students, researchers and staff from participating institutions to obtain Internet connectivity across campus and when visiting other participating institutions by simply opening their laptop.

To use eduroam wifi you will need to setup your laptop or smartphone. As end-user you will only be able to use eduroam if your institution provides electronic identity (e.g. account for network access). In that case you will need to contact your administrator and ask for an account. You (or your network administrator) will have to configure your computer to enable eduroam access.

Library and Information Center of the Athens University of Economics and Bussiness

The Library was established in 1920 with the foundation of the School of Commercial Studies. The Library became an annex of the School with a reading room in 1928. It is the oldest economic academic library in Greece. It is located on the 1st and 2nd floor of the University’s central building.

The first yearbook of the School was published in 1928. Despite the difficult issues of that period, the importance of the library's function was not underestimated and its first core collection was made up of textbooks. With endowments from various organizations, the School acquired scholarly works on economics, commerce and trade. At the same time, the Library began to stock its shelves with some of the most important foreign-language monographs and committed to allocating considerable funds from the School's resources to enrich the collections of the Library.

The following year, a catalog of foreign journals, to which the Library had subscribed, were included in the Yearbook. More than one hundred titles were included in the catalog making it possible to directly and systematically monitor all developments in economic and financial issues. Additionally, the Library's mission was to support the scientific study and research at the School and to serve as a central model for all relevant scientific data.

In 1935, the Library was accommodated in the central building on Patission Street.

Old Textbooks

The editions of the old textbooks which date from the establishment of the School up until 1950 are the precursors of today's textbooks. These old textbooks are important because they are papers and articles written by the first professors of the School of Economics and Business, and mark the legacy of economic thought in Greece. Indicative of the names of permanent and visiting professors during that period, whose textbooks are in the AUEB library collections, include Professors Kallitsounakis, Anastasiadis, Christodoulakis, Sideris, Fourkiotis, Miliotis, and others.

Historic Economics Books

The Rare Books Collection includes old editions from the end of the 19th century to the middle of the 20th century. These publications reflect the economic, social, legal and philosophical thought in Greece during the above-mentioned period. The items in this collection are of exceptional importance not only because they are rare but primarily because they provide important information about the economic history of the country and the developments in its fiscal policies and other topics in the economic life of Greece.

Rare Journal Editions

The historical collections are complemented by scientific journals such as "Economic Journal" from 1891 and "Economica" from 1921. There are also Yearbooks of the School, governmental journals, often from the foundation of the Greek state, and include the government newspaper, budgets and accounts, and documents from the Parliament Archives.

The volumes of these historical collections are kept in special areas. They can be searched in the Library Catalog and users can be assisted by the staff to locate them. For reasons of preservation and accessibility, several of these documents have been digitized and are available from the AUEB Digital Library "Pyxida", always with respect for intellectual property rights.

The AUEB Library constantly expands its collections and services through collaborative partnerships, and preserves and maintains its printed wealth and its historical past.

The AEUB Library has forged a new strategy with the project "AUEB Library Modern Digital Services" which was completed in 2015The purpose of this initiative is to strengthen and to support its service and to implement innovative actions using new technology. The completion of the project will achieve the following:

  • Improve and upgrade its educational processes by enhancing equal access to rich digitalized research and education material.
  • Disseminate information to the public about the educational and research activities that the University does.
  • File and maintain rich digital content, to support the educational process and to promote our cultural heritage.
  • Exploit technology to facilitate and strengthen access for all members of the academic community to the printed material of the Greek Academic libraries.
  • Improve the daily work of the library staff, increasing their productivity and allowing them to spend their time on more substantive actions that support the educational work in the university.

In order to achieve the above, set of services was developed. Some of the more important are:
