The department of Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies is dedicated to research and instruction in Byzantine and Modern Greek history, culture and language. It offers a comprehensive study programme that encompasses both historical and philological approaches and enables students to develop a deep understanding of the developments and significance of the Byzantine Empire and the Modern Greek world.

As a small but highly committed department, we attach particular importance to personal and low-threshold counselling. Our students and prospective students benefit from individualised support and an open, accessible atmosphere.
