Administratively, the Service is broken down into three core areas:

 

Library Services

Frederick Institute of Technology operates well-equipped libraries at both the Nicosia and Limassol campuses with a wide range of printed and electronic resources. Students have free and immediate access to books, journals, periodicals, videotapes, audio-tapes, slides and CD-ROMs. Services include book lending, inter-library loaning, photocopiers, computers and Internet linkage. The library subscribes to numerous journals and periodicals from all over the world, and to search bank database services via the Internet.

The referencing system of the libraries at both campuses is computerized and can be accessed via terminals from any building within the campus.

General-purpose PCs are sited within both library buildings. Access to the Internet and electronic mail is also available.

Our expert team of librarians will help you exploit the Library’s information resources. They are ready to assist with specialized enquiries in your courses and can guide you to relevant information sources.

Medical Services

Medical care needs are met through government general hospitals and private clinics. All general hospitals as well as some private clinics have casualty departments for emergency cases.

Insurance

Charges for medical advice and prescriptions are paid for by the patient. For this reason it is advisable for students to obtain accident/medical insurance which should be valid for the entire period of their studies. Immigration Regulations require all international students to have valid insurance cover for health and accident during their studies in Cyprus.
