U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

The programme focuses on Environmental Biology, including Marine and Terrestrial aspects. After a period of courses, training in modern field and lab techniques, students spend 2 periods of 3 months in research labs of their choice. During the 2nd year they carry out their MScthesis in labs participating in the programme with staff & infrastructures (Biology Dept, Hellenic Centre for Mar. Res., or the Museum of Natural History in Crete). High quality research, interdisciplinarity & international projects provide the basis for a successful research profile.

Faculty members and teaching assistants teach courses and clinical practice in the 6-year period of studies. Many courses include aboratory practice and most include familiarization with the scientific literature. The students also have the opportunity to choose from a range of elective courses that help them to acquire deeper knowledge in specific fields. Learning outcome is assessed (at least) once in a semester by written or oral exams or presentations. The graduates are expected to be able to serve as medical practitioners and to continue as interns in hospitals.
