Introduction
In cooperation with EUCLID, an intergovernmental treaty-based institution with a university mandate, EULER offers to select students from the general public an online PhD in bioethics which covers both clinical and global health bioethical issues.
It is, to date, the only PhD program in this field offered by an international intergovernmental organization. Its purpose is to prepare highly qualified public health professionals able to serve in civil service, international organizations, health care institutions, as well as non-governmental organizations globally.
Audience | Interest Groups
This unique PhD program focuses on both theoretical as well as practical and policy aspects of ethics and bioethics.
This doctoral program was primarily designed to serve civil servants of EUCLID’s Participating States, but it is also open to the general public as an excellent route to pursue a career within inter-governmental bodies, NGOs and the public sector.
Thanks to its low tuition and institutional relationships, it is expected to be of special interest to Global South/African students.
Admissions
Scholarships and Funding

Curriculum
Bioethics is a discipline still lacking true international and interdisciplinary experts. Few programs are truly international in scope so as to fully prepare graduates for global civil service careers that will engage a wide variety of clinical and public health challenges, including end-of-life care, gender issues, clinical trial ethics, etc.
To answer this challenge, EULER has designed a world-class doctoral curriculum, which is presented here with full documentation of syllabus and faculty resources, as well as total tuition. This documentation will enable potential students to determine if this program is suitable and aligned with their career objectives.
Career Opportunities
The EULER-EUCLID PhD in Bioethics both provide outstanding professional and academic preparation to its students for a successful career in ethics, bioethics and global health policy and research at the international, regional, national and local levels. This includes academic positions as well as civil service (government, international organizations such as WHO, UNICEF, etc.)
