Keele University is opening a new European campus in Greece.
The North Staffordshire university has been granted a licence to open a new campus in Athens and a ceremony has taken place to mark the official launch of Keele University, Greece taking place.
It will deliver a suite of programmes at a new campus featuring state-of-the-art laboratories, innovation hubs, and collaborative learning spaces from 2025 onwards.
