Journalist
The journalists are graduates of Faculties of Communication, Journalism and Mass Media.
They can work as reporters, advertisers and art critics. The above occupations do not have
specific occupational rights, which mean that someone can work as a journalist without hav-
ing graduated from a relevant faculty. Moreover, journalists can work in mass media (televi-
sion, radio, magazines, newspapers), in services of the Ministry of Press, in Press Offices,
in advertising companies and in Cultural Organizations. The occupational prospects for
this profession are rather negative due to two factors: firstly, journalists do not have specific
occupational rights and, secondly, there are many private colleges and faculties in Greece,
which offer this kind of studies.

Professor of mathematics
The professors of Mathematics are graduates of the relevant Faculties of Mathematics.
They can work both in research and in private and public education. With a certain Master
degree in Computer Science, they can work in I.T. companies, or with a Master in Econom-
ics (MBA), they can work in businesses, as financial counselors. The prospects of working
in the public sector, as teachers in secondary education, are rather negative. To be more
specific, in 2004 there were 388 places offered in the public sector and the graduates who
applied in order to take part in a certain examination procedure were 6.051.
