Courses and programmes

Undergraduate students can study law in English at SULaw through our freestanding courses, or our exchange programmes if they are students from our partner universities.

As Sweden's most prominent law school, we offer tailored, career-boosting LL.M. programmes, suited both for practising lawyers and newly graduated law students, in five specific areas of law.

Doctoral studies in law consist of 4 years of full-time studies, leading to a Doctor of Laws Degree (LL.D). Besides two mandatory courses, most time is devoted to the writing of a thesis.

SULaw offers two tracks to become a practicing lawyer in Sweden, one in 4,5 years, and one in 2 years for students who already hold a foreign law degree. Both tracks require proficiency in Swedish.
