Welcome by the President

Dear students,

I welcome you to the Department of Theatre Studies of the University of Peloponnese and wish you good and creative studies.

Our Department serves the scientific study of theatre and theatrical artistic creation, in combination with other sciences and arts, such as history, social anthropology, music, dance and cinema.

It is a Department that has a dual character and orientation, aiming at an adequate and multifaceted engagement with theatre, which will satisfy contemporary scientific and artistic requirements and provide stimuli for further engagement with the subject. 
Our Department meets domestic and international university standards by fostering interdisciplinarity, creative and student-centred learning and by making a decisive opening to society through artistic and other activities at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Students, among other things, have the opportunity to take part in theatrical and broader artistic activities, to carry out internships and to take advantage of the pan-European Erasmus student mobility programme in foreign countries.

I hope that in the years of your studies your expectations and requirements from the studies provided in our Department will be met, that you will acquire the necessary knowledge and skills and finally that you will cultivate and progress at all levels, acquiring a basic tool for your life and career.

The President of the Department of Theatre Studies

Athanasios Blesios
