ESN UOM Thessaloniki is part of the International Exchange Erasmus Student Network, a European-wide student organisation, created to support and develop student exchange. ESN network has more than 500 local sections in almost 40 countries working in and with the Higher Educational Institutes and are being organized on a local, national and international level with approximately 15.000 members. The
network is in direct contact with more than 220.000 international minded students. The aim of ESN UOM Thessaloniki is to improve the mobility-experience of all the students studying in our town. One of our main objectives is to improve the social and personal integration of the exchange students. We also try to ensure that every erasmus student coming for an exchange is warmly welcomed, receives all the information he needs and gets rapidly involved in the local student life. To achieve this goal, we organize welcome parties and all kind of fun, sportive and cultural activities, all year long. We also set up buddy programs, provide information and may even come and fetch you at the airport when you arrive! In a word, we are here to make your stay in Thessaloniki a better, easier and richer experience! The first section of the Erasmus Student Network in Thessaloniki has been established by the students of University Of Macedonia and is based in the University Of Macedonia. The office of ESN UOM Thessaloniki is located on the ground floor of the University, behind Anikoula bookstore.
