IVEC 2025
In 2025, the International Virtual Exchange Conference will take place in Heraklion, Crete, Greece. We are delighted to welcome you in one of the most vibrant and innovative cities of Greece, full of color and experiences to enjoy.
IVEC is the largest and most prominent event on Virtual Exchange, providing a forum for instructors, administrators, instructional designers, and educational leaders from institutions around the world interested in technology, international education, and new pedagogies.
Virtual Exchange (also known as Collaborative Online International Learning – COIL, Globally Networked Learning, or Telecollaboration) extends authentic opportunities for intercultural and transnational learning to students within K-16 classrooms, as well as through co-curricular activities.

Hellenic Mediterranean University (HMU): Your Path to Advanced Studies in CreteThe Hellenic Mediterranean University (HMU), established in 2019, represents a significant evolution of the former Technological Educational Institute of Crete. This transformation has elevated HMU from an applied sciences institution to a full- fledged research university, with the authority to award Ph.D. degrees.
Academic Excellence Across Crete
With its main campus in Heraklion, HMU operates campuses across Crete, providing students with diverse learning environments. The university is comprised of five schools and 11 departments, offering a comprehensive range of academic
programs. In addition to its undergraduate offerings, HMU features a strong commitment to graduate education with 15 postgraduate degrees (MSc) available to students
seeking to specialize in their fields.

Research is a core focus at HMU. All research activities are supported and hosted within a newly established research center, where research teams are integrated into one of six distinct research institutions.
HMU’ s commitment to international collaboration is demonstrated by its participation in the European University ATHENA (Advanced Technology Higher Education Network Alliance). This partnership enhances the university's global reach and
provides students and faculty with expanded opportunities.
