In the words of our General Manager, Sotiris Foutsis: “The University of New York in Prague is truly a product created and perfected by the quality of our Alumni. All of our graduates go out into the world as UNYP ambassadors, and many have consistently shown themselves to be shining beacons giving their light to their communities and professions, and even giving back to current UNYP students.”
