The subject of the thesis is the restoration and reuse of the old University of Ioannina on Ioannis Domboli Street. The building is referred to as a "symbol of spirituality that is identified with the modern history of the city of Ioannina" and its location creates an open front of communication and connection between the city and its inhabitants.

 This building is the first University of Ioannina and today only a part of it has been utilized, which houses the offices of the tax office of Ioannina. The rest of the building, which can be seen from Domboli Street, is unexploited and not suitable for visiting or use. This image of the building has provoked many reactions in the local community and its restoration has been discussed enough. Present in this situation as a resident of Ioannina, I chose my thesis to deal with the study of the building due to its cultural and historical value and to house the School of Architecture of Ioannina.

 The School of Architectural Engineering operated with its first students during the academic year 2015-2016. Its department was initially housed in the premises of the Science and Technology Park of Epirus, which is located near the campus of the University of Ioannina. This building did not meet the requirements of a school of architecture and from the beginning of 2014, the University of Ioannina expressed its interest to move the school in its own building, so that it has the space to promote and cultivate the science of Architecture Engineer.

 An important role in the proposal of the thesis, was played the fact that the building of the old University of Ioannina is designed to accommodate University premises. With its reuse, the old University of Ioannina as a building, will continue to have an educational character and will give an essential and symbolic significance of the presence of the Department of Architecture in the city of Ioannina.
