The European Health Economics & Management (Eu-HEM) Master’s degree offered by Management Center Innsbruck, the Universities of Bologna and Oslo, as well as Erasmus University Rotterdam, equips students with everything they need for a career in an international environment. The program was introduced in 2012 and, already in 2015, attained accreditation as well as quality assessment by respective bodies in Austria, the Netherlands, Italy, and Norway. From 2018-2020, the Eu-HEM program was recognized as Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree by the European Commission.
The harmonized first semester, which is taught at the University of Bologna, aims to acquire the basics relevant to the healthcare sector in the fields of economics, management, law, political science and research methods. Another distinct feature of the European Master’s is its provision of altogether four areas of specialization available to students from the second semester: Management of Healthcare Institutions, Economic Evaluation in Healthcare, Economics & Policy, and Population Health Management.
The program is based on blended learning. Consequently, it combines online modules with on-campus classes. On the one hand, this guarantees a large degree of flexibility and, on the other hand, it provides plenty of opportunity for interaction with teachers and fellow students.
