Modern Greek Classes
The University also offers summer Greek classes in the Kalamata campus. This program is directed at Greeks living abroad, especially in the United States, Canada, Australia and the UK. For people of Greek descent who have at least one grandparent from the Messenia province, these classes are free as are room and food during the one month program. The World Council of Messenians Abroad provides the funding for this scholarship program.
