The University of Macedonia (Greek: Πανεπιστήμιο Μακεδονίας or PanepistÃmio MakedonÃas) is situated in Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece. Being the second largest university in the city (following the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki), it currently consists of ten departments which deal mainly with social, political and economic sciences.
Before 1991, it was known as "School of Higher Industrial Studies of Thessaloniki" ("Anotati Viomihaniki Sholi Thessalonikis"). After its name and location was changed, more departments were added expanding its scope beyond
management and economics. A Local Committee of AIESEC (the first one in Thessaloniki) is in operation (has its office in the ground floor of the main building) and is very active with promoting AIESECs scopes. Also a local unit of Erasmus Student Network, ESN UOM Thessaloniki (the first section in Thessaloniki) is on the go in promoting, developing and supporting the Erasmus community.
