The opportunities offered by a joint degree programme

The European Master in Health Economics and Management (Eu-HEM) offers a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary studies of methods and health economics, management, leadership, health policy, governance and law at four leading European universities. The Eu-HEM prepares you to be employed in staff and executive positions in organisations and institutions involved in healthcare provision. A key to a career in this sector is awareness of the societal relevance of healthcare and the implied constraints imposed by regulations and the law, which are all elements you will achieve with this degree. Upon successful completion of the Eu-HEM, you will be awarded a European Joint Degree and a Joint Diploma in: European Master in Health Economics and Management, recognised by all four universities. The names of the national degrees differ, but will be described in the Joint Diploma Supplement.

The Eu-HEM is granted the prestigious Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD). EMJMD awards well funded scholarship to the best student candidates. The Eu-HEM grants 15 EMJMD student scholarships per intake and the selection for the scholarship is highly competitive.

The selection of EMJMD student scholarship follows the same principals as the selection of students into the programme.
