This programme is suitable for those wanting to immerse themselves in the specific field of international law that regulates the actions of armed forces and other actors in armed conflict and crises. Among other things, you will study the law of armed conflict, human rights and the legal frameworks for peace operations.
The programme is an international, practice-informed Master’s programme for those who hold a law degree or bachelor’s degree in law specialising in International Law, or an equivalent Swedish or foreign degree. The programme leads to the Degree of Master of Laws (LL.M.), (60 credits) in International Operational Law. All courses are given in English.
The Master’s programme in International Operational Law gives you as a student a highly specialised, practice-informed education in the international law that governs armed conflict and other crises.
The programme focuses on studying the legal room for manoeuvre for states and other actors in the areas of crisis management, defence and security. The programme covers the entire spectrum from peace to crisis and armed conflict from an international legal perspective.
You will have the opportunity to study, for example:
The programme is practice-informed and contains a high degree of application elements, such as different types of exercises and gaming, as well as Socratic course components in order to create an educational environment that is characterised by a high degree of active participation in the programme. Courses are taught in a combination of physical in-class teaching and distance-learning.
Your teachers will be internationally acknowledged and highly specialised academics and practitioners who link the programme to both current international research and experience drawn from work in international organisations, the armed forces and in international contexts. The teaching staff and the student group are also characterised by a high degree of internationalisation with links to relevant national and international government agencies and intergovernmental and non-governmental organisations. All in all, this creates a dynamic, stimulating educational environment in which students and teachers work closely together.
The programme starts with five mandatory courses during the first term, which lay the foundations for the subject of international operational law. This also includes a course on Selected Aspects of Operational Law, in which a topical subject will be studied under the guidance of a visiting professor who conducts research in that specific area.
During the second term you will choose two courses, each comprising 7.5 credits, which provide an opportunity for further specialisation, practical application or a broadening towards any of the Swedish Defence University’s other subjects, such as leadership, defence systems or political science. The term and the programme are then completed with the writing of a master thesis. The thesis course comprises 15 credits.
The teaching of all mandatory courses and the elective courses mentioned below are offered in English.
Applicants should attach a CV (no more than 2 pages written in English), a motivation letter (no more than 1 page, in English), 2 reference letters (one academic reference and one professional). If no work-related reference letter can be issued, two academic reference letters are acceptable. All official academic transcripts and necessary official translations to English or Swedish (this applies to applicants with documents in other languages than English, Swedish, Norwegian or Danish), must be uploaded to your University Admisisons account under Documents or showing under Merits in the same portal. All documents must be uploaded by February 1, 2023.
