So I started doing my research. So many things to find, out so much difference, so little time... After looking at several websites/forums I found that several universities do bachelor degrees in English, there aren’t that many because the majority of English instructed degrees are for Master students, almost every university in Sweden offers those. Since I’m applying to do a business oriented degree I found the following universities to be offering bachelor level education in English:
1. Jönköping University
2. Mälardalen University College
3. Dalarna University
4. University of Gävle
5. Umeå Universty
All of the above are högskola or in English university colleges, in other words not real universities as we like to know them (I’m thinking Oxford, Cambridge) More info on this can be found on Wikipedia here. Even though they don’t have the usual name of university they are allowed to conduct bachelor and master degrees and some even do PhD degrees.
There is also Umea University which is a proper university and has a lot of programmes in English it is also fifth oldest in the country, formed in 1965 and has around 29000 students. It is however, located in the north part of the country some 400 km south of the arctic circle.
The other exclusion is Jönköping University, it is a university but its International school of business (JIBS) – separate from the university itself has a lot of programmes in English. And as of 2007 you can’t apply to their courses through the central application system – studera.nu so if you are thinking of applying there you will need one more set of documents, more about that later on.
