Abstract
Youth unemployment has been a persistent problem in Greece since the start of the country’s financial crisis, but how has the crisis affected the career choices made by young Greeks? Rigissa Megalokonomou writes on trends in the university subjects chosen by Greek students. She notes that there has been an increase in the popularity of courses associated with good employment prospects such as healthcare and law, but that certain academically challenging fields such as engineering have experienced a drop in enrolments.
