Unit profile

Description

The Faculty of Law is one of Lund University's four original faculties. Over 350 years, we have developed knowledge within jurisprudence which finds applications in all parts of society. Our law degree programme is one of the country's most popular degree programmes and the links to research provide our students with a critical and evaluating approach to law in a broad perspective, which is required and in demand on all levels of society. In addition, we offer two international Master's programmes and a number of freestanding courses.

Research

The urgent research issues of today are multifaceted and we meet them with a subject-wide approach within the faculty, an interdisciplinary approach within Lund University and in collaboration with professional legal practice and wider society. Meanwhile, national law is facing new challenges through globalisation and Swedish membership in the EU, which have increased the focus on European and international issues.
