The resident of the Department of Shipping and Business Services at the University of the Aegean talked to us on the occasion of the Scientific Symposium “The Green Transition of Coastal Shipping: challenges and perspectives for insularity” that took place in Chios.
Mr Kapros referred to the importance of the green transition in our coastal shipping, stressing that in addition to business activity, it is also a Public Service connecting our islands to each other and to the center and there must be a special care-policy for our islanders.
As for the Department of Shipping and Business Services of the University of the Aegean, its president Mr Kapros spoke about its 25-year history, as well as its programs, stressing that graduates are absorbed almost immediately into the shipping market.
Finally, he spoke about the appointment of the president of the Hellenic Maritime Chamber, Giorgos Pateras, to an honorary doctorate of the Department of Shipping and Business Services of the University of the Aegean.
