History
Founded in 1971, BCA has formed a level of quality and study conditions unique among Greek educational institutions. BCA was also one of the first educational institutions with branches in Geneva and Rome, and the first private college offering validated programmes in Greece from UK Universities through exclusive agreements.
Education
BCA Group is one of the largest educational institutions in Greece, offering Bachelors and Masters Degrees in the fields of Business Management, Maritime Studies, Hotel Management and Psychology.
Research
In line with BCA’s commitment to excellence, knowledge creation and innovation the BCA Research Centre was launched a year ago. The Research Centre took its place within the organisation as a “space” for knowledge and ideas exchanging, shaping and sharing. Accordingly the Research Centre’s key objective is to host research in a broad range of areas including management, marketing, economics, psychology, IT, shipping, and hospitality drawing on our faculty expert knowledge, talents and skills.
Career
The BCA has created an organized office for professional promotion (Career Office) which also collaborates with many large companies in the private sector, which each year, address BCA in a desire to hire its graduates. The demand for able and trained employees in the sector of Business Administration, Marketing, Hotel Management, Shipping Management, Management of Food Businesses and Transport and Advertising, continues to be greater than the supply.

BCA collaborates with a well established network of real estate agents located in the wider area of each of our campuses, responsible for finding suitable properties compatible with our students’ needs and financial resources. This service is coordinated by the Student Services Department and addresses mainly to students coming from abroad and other regions of Greece.
Library services
BCA has a fully stocked library with over 3000 titles. The collection is organized in accordance with the international standards of librarianship. The subject indexing is based on the subject headings of the Library of Congress of the U.S, and the classification is based on the decimal system of Dewey. The library has a fully automated system and the list of the collection is available online.
ICT services
Developments in IT and communications play a significant role in the quality of education as they offer students a unique experience which introduces them to the requirements of modern academic and work environments. At BCA we invest continuously in up-to-date equipment and innovative electronic services.
Medical services
Students at AUEB are entitled to full medical care through the National Health System, provided that they do not have any other medical and hospitalization coverage.

The renovation works have already started and in September we will welcome you to our new sophisticated premises.
- Spacious multi-use facilities: Modern libraries with electronic access to infinite academic data bases will provide scientific knowledge on all the fields of study offered by BCA. The huge lounge area will become the college's social hub, while the pioneering multi-purpose theater will be the center of cultural life and entertainment.

The students at BCA are serious in anything they do and always want to stand out!
It is a known fact that athletics builds the body and the mind. That is why sports activities at BCA do not stop, each year organizing tournaments in paintball, bowling, billiards and trips for sailing, rafting, even winter skiing.
