Abstract
In 1992 there were in Europe 54 schools of public health and six out of eight possible structures were represented. To meet future needs two types (the US style school of public health as a stand-alone academic entity and the cross-school programme in public health with formal ties to national public health authorities) seem to be the most promising alternatives. New schools should strive to take on one of these shapes, and the rejuvenation of existing schools might, via accreditation procedures, evolve in those directions too.
