Today the University runs ten departments in four greater fields of study (Academic Schools): a) Economics, Business and International Studies, b) Maritime and Industrial Studies, c) Finance and Statistics and d) Information and Communication Technologies, awarding degrees and doctorates in the corresponding scientific fields.

UPRC aims at providing the institutional framework which would facilitate and, to some extent, support the research carried out by faculty members, in the general fields of economics, management and computing. UPRC numbers 25 experienced employees in supportive managerial activities and is governed by an executive board formed exclusively by faculty members of the University, appointed by the Senate. UPRC has so far carried out more than 1.000 research programs, as well as numerous education programs, conferences and executive seminars funded by the European Union, the General Secretariat of Research and Technology, Ministries, banks, organizations of the civil sector, companies, non-profit and non-governmental organizations. <br \/><\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><br \/><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">In the SMEnergy project UPRC is represented by a team led by Prof. V.

The primary aim of the Dept. of Industrial Management &amp; Technology is to provide its students with the appropriate scientific knowledge and methodology required for the analysis, design, implementation, organization and management of industries as well as manufacturing and services providing companies. Apart from its educational role the Department contributes directly to the enhancement of the national economy and the Greek society as a whole. It has a long-standing record of collaboration, via nationally and EU funded applied research projects, with major Greek industries, manufacturing companies and SMEs. Collaborating companies belong to various industrial sectors such as home appliances, electronic\/electrical equipment, packaging and bicycle manufacturing, as well as to non-industrial economic sectors like engineering and business consulting, logistic services, public transport and health-care.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ceff723 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ceff723\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">UPRC: 91 Al.
