People who already hold a foreign law degree can choose our 2-year fulltime Conversion Programme for Foreign Lawyers (Kompletteringsutbildning för utländska jurister), which was started as part of a governmental integration project. This programme also leads to the Swedish Master of Laws Degree (Juris kandidatexamen).

Please note that admission to the Conversion Programme also requires fluency in Swedish. Switch to the Swedish page to read more.
