The Greek Educational Partnership at Saint 浪花直播 University (GEP- SLU) is an interdisciplinary program housed within the Boeing Institute for International Business at SLU's Chaifetz School of Business.
Mission and Goals
The GEP-SLU mission is to create global connections through our scholarship program and related activities with participating Greek universities while creating a life-changing experience for these student scholars.

History

The organization is the first academic partnership formed with Greece in the Chaifetz School of Business. It focuses on building and strengthening the relationship between Greece and the United States through higher education.
