Crete, Greece
Minoan International College is located on Crete, the largest of the Greek Islands, and is an English speaking institution with an international focus on education to meet the needs of the hospitality and tourism industry. It is bordered by the Sea of Crete and the Mediterranean and a short bus ride from Herakleion, the fifth largest city in Greece.
D’Youville has an agreement with Minoan for a Study Abroad Program for students enrolled at both institutions. Our International Business and Dietetics programs allow Minoan students to complete their hospitality and tourism management studies through our graduate program. Our students in the two-degree Dietetics and International programs will earn a Bachelor’s and a Master’s degree and attend both institutions.
Both programs are fully accredited and recognized world-wide.
Minoan is housed in Terra Maris, a luxury resort hotel where classrooms, dining rooms and training kitchens make for a magnificent and safe home away from home. All classes are taught in English and are small, making the learning experience intimate and friendly.
