In an official ceremony held on Friday, May 2nd at 18:00, European University Cyprus inaugurated the impressive new expansion of its campus in Nicosia. The inauguration was officiated by H.E. the President of the Republic of Cyprus, Mr. Nikos Christodoulides, in the presence of ministers, members of parliament, government officials, academic leaders, and business representatives.
The new state-of-the-art building, with a total area of 6,000 square meters, has been designed to meet the growing needs of the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, as well as the Health Sciences programs. It includes cutting-edge facilities such as Biotechnology, Nanotechnology and Clinical Simulation laboratories, as well as specialized practical training areas. Special emphasis has also been placed on the development of the new School of Veterinary Medicine, with fully equipped laboratories and infrastructure that meet strict European standards. This is a project that is expected to become a national reference point for technological innovation, not only for the University but also for Cyprus at large.
As part of its strategic focus on technological leadership, the new building also houses the Cisco Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center. The Center serves as a hub for education, support and networking for startups and innovative ventures, with a focus on digital technology, healthcare innovation, and artificial intelligence. The building is also home to pioneering programs that leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI) in health, education, and research, positioning the University as a leader in digital transformation.
The project stands out for its aesthetics, functionality, and environmental friendliness, and has been certified with Energy Performance Class A. The total investment, which exceeds €22 million, is part of the University’s broader sustainable development plan.
Through continuous investment in innovative infrastructure, cutting-edge technologies, and sustainable practices, European University Cyprus is establishing itself as an international university with national impact and social responsibility. At the same time, it remains a key partner in supporting the vision of the Republic of Cyprus to position the country as a regional center of quality higher education in the Eastern Mediterranean.
