EUniWell’s joint degree “Well-Being oriented Healthcare” successfully accredited - Cologne hosts Summer School

Starting with the 2026/27 winter semester, EUniWell will offer the new master’s programme “Well-Being oriented Healthcare.”

This internationally accredited programme is designed for healthcare professionals and provides in-depth knowledge of patient-centered and holistic healthcare. The program is offered as a joint degree by the University of Cologne, the University of Murcia (Spain), Semmelweis University Budapest (Hungary), the University of Florence (Italy), and the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain).

The Programme is designed as a two-year part-time program and is conducted primarily online. This allows participants to complete their studies while continuing to work in their home country.

More information is available on the EUniWell website.

Before the master programme begins, University of Cologne is hosting a summer school on the same topic. The Summer School titled "Multidimensional aspects of well-being in healthcare - Practising the person-centred approach” will take place from 29 June - 3 July 2026 on the campus of the Faculty of Medicine. Two online sessions will take place prior to the event in Cologne. The multicultural programme supports a shift away from biomedical model of illness, focusing on single diseases, to a comprehensive approach understanding the complex interplay of determinants which affect an individual’s well-being. The EUniWell universities of Florence, Murcia, Santiago de Compostela, Semmelweis, and Cologne are participating in the Summer School’s academic programme. The application period has already closed.  

Questions about the Master's programme as well as summer school can be directed to Dr. Dorothee Groeger at master-health@euniwell.eu.
