Abstract Background In 2006 a joint European public health master course EuroPubHealth was created by a group of European universities, coordinated by the EHESP in Rennes. The EPH Program is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. Objectives One of the objective of the EPH Program is to support public health development through education of specialists from different parts of the World. To see the scope of this support, the data of candidates and students were analyzed, mainly in terms of their country of origin and background. Results A total number of candidates is growing significantly: it was 319 in 2006 and 609 in 2018. In 13 intakes over 5100 candidates from 156 countries applied, 331 of them (from 77 countries) became students. Most of candidates were from Africa (42% in total and 10% from Nigeria only) and Asia (33%). Looking at students’ group the structure is different - 28% students were from Europe and 25% from Asia; Africa took only 10% study places.
