Read this post in :

Applications for the Erasmus Mundus Europubhealth+ (European Master in Public Health) scholarships are now open for the 2026/2027 academic year.

Led by a consortium of eight European universities, Europubhealth+ is a two-year (120 ECTS) master’s program that trains professionals to address major public health challenges—from epidemiology to health policy—through mandatory mobility between partner universities and the award of a double degree. Erasmus Mundus scholarships are available, offering a monthly allowance of up to €1,400 and full coverage of participation costs. For the 2026 intake, the scholarship application deadline is January 8, 2026 (12:00 CET), while the self-funded application deadline is March 25, 2026 (12:00 CET).

About the Europubhealth+ Program

The Europubhealth+ Master’s program is designed for students who wish to understand, assess, and improve population health. The first year builds a solid foundation in public health, covering epidemiology and biostatistics, health economics and policy, social sciences, and health systems management. During the second year, students choose a specialization—such as environmental health, healthcare management, health data analytics, or health promotion. At the end of each academic year, an integration module brings the full cohort together to exchange perspectives and share experiences.

Partner Universities

The Europubhealth+ program is jointly delivered by eight complementary European universities:

• University College Dublin (UCD) – Ireland
• University of Liège (ULiège) – Belgium
• University of Sheffield – United Kingdom
• University of Granada & Andalusian School of Public Health (EASP) – Spain
• University of Bordeaux (ISPED) – France
• University of Rennes – EHESP – France
• Jagiellonian University (Krakow) – Poland
• Maastricht University – Netherlands

Degrees Awarded

Graduates receive a double master’s degree—one from the first-year host university and another from the second-year host institution. They also earn a Europubhealth+ certificate and a joint diploma supplement, which are valuable assets for pursuing doctoral studies or careers in public health institutions, NGOs, international agencies, and consultancy firms.
