Undergraduate Education: Bachelor Degree in Communication and Internet Studies (Specialisation: Information Society)
By national entrance exams, in 2011 I classified to attend the Cyprus University of Technology. My degree of choice was the Bachelor in Communication & Internet Studies by the School of Communication & Media.
I started in September 2011 and graduated in June 2016. I was at a disadvantageous position because I was working and studying at the same time, but I was able to balance work, with full-time university studies. My time to study was very limited but after many sacrifices, I was able to achieve academic excellence and get my degree with an excellent score (1st Honours, 1:1).

High School (Technical Education): Theoretical Computer Engineering
I attended the B’ Technical School Limassol “Gregoris Auxentiou” from 2008 to 2011 to get my technical high school degree in Theoretical Computer Engineering. During my high school years, I was working after school on a 5-hour basis daily. Because of this, I had very limited time for studying. However, working after school didn’t prevent me from being a good student, graduating with Very Good, and most importantly: being really active into volunteering and extracurricular activities.
My technical high school degree provided me with technical knowledge in the IT sector and strong IT literacy. The main study subjects were: Theoretical IT concepts, informatics, hardware, and software installation, debugging, networks. Technical education definitely gave me a competitive edge on my higher education studies.
