SUMMER STUDY : SWEDEN : INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAM

Suffolk University Law School's 11th Annual Summer Law Program in Lund, Sweden will be held next summer June 16, 2009 through Sunday July 16, 2009.

Study abroad is now an essential part of legal training and Suffolk University Law School has one of the most unique summer abroad law programs in the country. Suffolk University Law School and the University of Lund Law Faculty have worked together for the past ten years to provide students with a quality academic and cultural experience. Students will interact closely in the classroom with students and faculty from both the U.S. and Sweden. It is this close interaction both in and outside the classroom that distinguishes the Suffolk University Law School summer abroad program from others. Students are presented with an opportunity not only to learn principles of substantive comparative and international law but also to immerse themselves in the educational, social and legal culture of Sweden a Member of the European Union.

The city of Lund provides an idyllic setting for a summer program. It retains a medieval atmosphere while providing a community of 39,000 students and scholars with modern state of the art educational and social facilities. In southern Sweden it is conveniently located on the fringe of Continental Europe a short train ride from Copenhagen, Denmark.
