myAUEB is the first comprehensive mobile application in a Greek university, available on Google and Apple stores. For the design of myAUEB, the scientific methodology of designing new and innovative digital media was followed: research was carried out on corresponding applications in universities abroad, recording the needs and existing information systems and determining specifications based on the needs of the student population. The mapping of needs and specifications was done using the human-centered design thinking method with the participation of volunteer groups of students, graduates and employees at the University.
The application, implemented in collaboration with COSMOTE and the digital marketing company White Space, is specially designed, according to international standards, to be easy to use and attractive, and has already gathered very positive feedback from the student groups that participated both in the initial design as well as in the test phases of its development.
On the occasion of the presentation of myAUEB, the Rector of OPA Prof Dimitris Burantonis, said: “One of our strategic priorities is to provide an upgraded university environment, which is achieved through, among other things, digital upgrading. Focusing on the OPA student, we provide a system with comprehensive information for all aspects of undergraduate studies, thus taking an important step in the direction of the University’s digital transformation.”
The person in charge of the project, Vice Rector of Economic Planning and Infrastructure of OPA Professor Kostas Drakos, said: “I am very pleased with the successful completion of this ambitious project, which aims to change the experience of studying at the Athens University of Economics and Business. The application is a single point of information that includes all undergraduate studies services. It offers direct and comprehensive information, while at the same time strengthening the connection of students with the University, sealing our constant pursuit of providing high-standard services”.
