Euclid University (EUCLID) is an intergovernmental university established by multilateral Memorandum of Understanding in 2008 (building on institutional agreements signed in 2005 and 2006). EUCLID has the status of an intergovernmental organization under international law. Its primary mission is twofold: to train government staff and groups of special interest for participating states; and to offer high-quality online/distance degree programs to the general public.

EUCLID University was chartered and accredited in May 2008 as a freestanding intergovernmental institution and as a separate member of the Euclid University Consortium.
