Annotation | In this article author based on his own experience, compares the higher education in Ukraine to that in Sweden. At the same time, the author also compares the way education is structured for the exchange students in the Lund University and within the international commercial arbitration law master program at the Stockholm University. The author notes the importance for students to have opportunity to study fewer courses, which makes their study deeper and more thorough. Furthermore, he welcomes the great attention given by both Swedish universities to the students’ work in groups over specific practice projects. Finally, the author explains the importance of the opportunity of Stockholm University arbitration students to communicate with practicing lawyers, as well as to approve themselves at international level when dealing with complex practice assignments. |
