Students' Views "Getting a Master' s degree from CMU with a Greek flavor was indeed an amazing opportunity. The skilled faculty and research teams at AIT were always successful in combining their academic/cultural diversities to forge more opportunities for scientific breakthroughs and innovative applications. Looking back now, the two years I spent in Athens and at AIT were, by far, the best in my life."
