Many of the most important determinants of health fall outside of the reach of medicine.

Identifying and influencing these factors to protect and promote health is the goal of public health. European Public Health (EPH) starts by giving students a high-quality public health education at bachelor level. Learn all about the health status and healthcare systems of European countries, as well as the authorities, institutions, and laws of the European Union.

EPH is for those who are interested in sustainable public health and healthcare systems, but also in national and international politics, administration and management, policy and strategy, communication and media. You’ll learn to bridge the gap between public health and national and European public health policy.

You’ll also develop the skills you need to work in governmental or healthcare-related organisations, or in EU or WHO units, in positions such as a policy advisor, health officer or prevention specialist.

Why this programme?

How do we prevent a virus (e.g. Corona, SARS) from becoming an epidemic? How do we formulate a policy on patients receiving treatments abroad? The role of the EU is only going to grow in the coming years, also in the healthcare sector. This affects the way we approach the themes within public health and healthcare. National policy is only effective if it’s also coordinated with international authorities.

European Public Health (EPH) is about preventing disease and promoting healthy lifestyles for all Europeans with clear European policy - because diseases, pathogens and other factors that influence health aren’t stopped by borders.

This programme is the only programme of its kind in Europe. It is also very internationally oriented. From the first day, you’re part of an international study environment in which you work with students from all over the world (at least 20 different nationalities).

Is European Public Health for you?

European Public Health is a great fit for you if:

• you're interested in national & international politics, governance & management, policy & strategy,
• you wish to operate at the borders of health sciences, political science, public administration, economics, sociology, ethics and law,
• you're inventive and socially involved,
• you wish to collaborate with international students and professors and spend time abroad.

International study experience:

International collaboration, organisation and management in the areas of public health and healthcare are important for the future of Europe and her inhabitants. The programme is therefore internationally oriented. It is also the only programme of its kind in Europe. From the start, your education will resemble an international working environment, where you’ll come into contact with a diverse range of students and instructors from all over the world.

You’ll also be encouraged to go abroad yourself. For example, you can do your minor period abroad. You’ll also finish your bachelor’s degree with a practical research internship or assignment and a thesis, and this internship can be done abroad; the university arranges this for you with an organisation that has interests at the European or global level. Of course, it is also possible to spend these periods at UM or elsewhere in the Netherlands.
