You are certainly eligible to apply if you have a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy. However, if you have a Bachelor’s degree in another relevant discipline, such as Culture studies, Political Studies, Liberal Arts and Sciences, Global Management of Social Issues, Administration studies, Political studies, Economics, Law, European studies, Communication Sciences, Human Resource Management, Psychology, or Social Sciences you are also most welcome to apply, but most likely a pre-Master's program will be required.
