The School of MedicineThe establishment of the School of Medicine at European University Cyprus has been pivotal to the institution’s aims to be part of the country’s aspiration as a regional medical center.
Founded in collaboration with distinguished scholars from Cyprus and abroad the organization of the School of Medicine is based on EU directives and international standards. It is accredited by the Evaluation Committee of Private Universities of the Ministry of Education and Culture (MOEC), approved by Hellenic National Academic Recognition Information Center and listed in the International Medical Directory of FAIMER (Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education and Research).
Students are taught and trained in Cyprus. Teaching is conducted in English, with a minimum work load of 360 ECTS of the education and training required to complete the Bachelor of Medicine Degree over six years. No ‘premedical’ coursework is required as the program of study provides an all-inclusive, full basic sciences thematic unit.
The School of Medicine is a dynamic learning environment, which enables students to develop the necessary skills and attributes required to practice medicine. The curriculum is skilled-based but students are exposed to clinical work and clinical relevance starting from the first year of study. This hands-on, practical approach is maintained throughout the six years of the course of study.
The School of Medicine serves as the regional ‘educational medical-platform’, providing high-caliber education in medicine and healthcare, targeting not only residents of Cyprus, but also international medical student candidates from Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa and the Middle East.
European University Cyprus educational model aims at making future graduates able to function anywhere within the EU and other international health care systems.

The Distance Learning UnitThe Unit was established in 2013 and has grown rapidly, offering easy access to education opportunities to a wide number of students or professionals who are not able to attend a face-to-face program/course, due to geographical, professional, family or other constraints. By responding to a growing social need for learning through alternative education programs, the Distance Education Unit helps promote equal opportunity in education. It counts students from 11 countries (Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Luxembourg, Poland, Sweden, Russia, the UAE, the UK and the USA) as well as many students from Cyprus.
In collaboration with the University’s Schools, the Distance Education Unit offers Bachelor and Master Degrees, as well as shorter independent professional training and specialization programs in various disciplines, such as Education, Music Education, Psychology, Public Health, Counselling, Business Administration, Marketing Communication and Social Media, Information Systems and English Language and Literature.

Services The Distance Education Unit, in addition to the programs offered on a regular basis, offers corporative training courses and professional development seminars in various disciplines to private companies or public organizations. Our Faculty members, experts in their discipline, will create the adequate learning material according to your needs and requirements. The courses/seminars will be offered entirely online by applying the Unit’s pedagogical model. We have already started the design of training courses and seminars for primary and secondary education teachers about the use and potential of Information and Communication Technologies in the classroom.
Pedagogical ModelThe Distance Education Unit of European University Cyprus is determined, from a pedagogical perspective, by a concrete model. Our main inspiration for the design and development of this model has been the Open University of Catalonia, the first 100% online university in the world, with which the Distance Education Unit of the EUC is constantly collaborating not only in research, but also at teaching level. Of course our pedagogical model is adapted to the needs, special characteristics and legislation of the Hellenic region (Greece and Cyprus), where distance education is still always accompanied with face-to-face meetings between the tutors and the students, as well as with the existence of an obligatory (written) final examination. In this context, European University Cyprus has taken into consideration the fundamental functioning principles of the Hellenic Open University and the Open University of Cyprus, with which it collaborates in issues that concern the learning materials that will be used by the University’s distance learning stdents, as well as the creation and offer of Joint Degrees.
General Objectives of the Unit
n To provide high-level education tailored to the needs of students and to ensure fulfillment of program’s objectives. n To provide high-level education and training tailored to the needs and the ‘digital profile’ of the academic teaching
personnel involved in the programs of the DEU. n To provide high-level distance education corporative training programs and professional development seminars
in various disciplines to private companies or public organizations for the development of the professional competences.
n To strengthen research in the European University of Cyprus, especially in the field of e-learning. n To promote the development, innovation and knowledge transfer related to the e-learning area.
