description This manuscript presents the educational evaluation performance of the BME department in Greece. The results are provided in terms of the (i) diploma degree and (ii) duration of studies, enumerating 1845 graduated students in total, over the past 30 years. The following conclusions can be drawn: (a) The mean grade value of all time was approximately 6.5; (b) the majority of students (59%) graduated after 7.4 study years with an average grade of 6.1; and (c) the most cost-effective degrees seem to be those that correspond to 5–6 study years for graduation.
