What is the Pella Project

The Pella Project is a rigorous academic program that offers you the chance to complete two summer courses and get up to 6 transferable college credits:

a) The world of Alexander the Great: a team-taught course focusing on ancient history, geography, art and architecture, rhetoric and philosophy, political theory and drama

b) Chose your second course from a list of summer course offerings (including language, social sciences, math, business, computer science etc.) A specially designed course just for the group can be also added.

It is also a travel experience you will never forget. You will explore a good part of mainland Greece, travel to Istanbul-Turkey, explore ancient sites and monuments and most of all your home base – the city of Thessaloniki. The package includes many fun planned events such as the following: city scavenger hunt, harbor boat ride, music and dinner night out, beach times, walks and hikes, organized athletic events etc.
