Greek Language Course – Course on Greek Culture and Civilization
The Greek Language and Culture Lab offers two types of courses to the Erasmus+ incoming students of the University of Patras:
a) Language courses that cover basic knowledge of Greek [levels A1 and A2], for communicative purposes. No prior knowledge of Greek is required.
