Overview
The International and European Law and Business programme at Uppsala University is designed both for those who have a background in business studies and want to supplement their education with studies in commercial law, and for those who have a background in commercial law and want to deepen their knowledge in business studies. The programme gives you an interdisciplinary overview of law and business and prepares you for work in international and European business.
During the programme you can expect to:
- Learn proactive strategic analysis based on the purpose of a business, where the legal system is one of several elements to be included in the analysis.
- Acquire integrated knowledge and skills in commercial law, which is not a mixture of law and business, but more than the sum of its parts.
- Learn to communicate with both lawyers and business economists, so that you can make better and more informed decisions.
Careers
The programme prepares you for a variety of career paths. Employers are found in businesses and organisations with cross-border activities, intergovernmental organisations such as the WTO, EU agencies, or national public agencies. Whichever path you choose, completing the programme will prepare you to work in the field of international business.
Possible future job roles could be as an entrepreneur, an environmental analyst, or a policy officer at a government agency. In the longer term, you will be prepared for management level positions. You also have the opportunity to pursue an academic career.
