From October 11 to 24, 2026, Olha Stohova, Associate Professor of the Department of Fundamental Jurisprudence and Constitutional Law at the Academic and Research Institute of Law of Sumy State University (SumDU), will be on a working visit to Örebro University (Örebro, Sweden). The trip will take place within the framework of the EU’s Erasmus+ international academic mobility program for teaching staff.
During the visit, Olha Stohova will conduct lectures and seminars for students of the law study program at Örebro University. The topics of the lectures and seminars cover key aspects of the national legal system and legal education in Ukraine. Among the topics planned for discussion are:
- Formation of legal education and the system of lawyer training in Ukraine;
- Experience of implementing the Unified State Qualification Exam in 2023–2025;
- Specifics of access to regulated legal professions: judge, prosecutor, attorney, and notary.
The lecturer’s participation in the program is funded by an Erasmus+ grant. During her stay in Sweden, the SumDU representative also plans to hold negotiations on further cooperation between the universities and the possibility of preparing joint grant projects.
International cooperation and academic mobility of the teaching staff remain a priority area of work for the Academic and Research Institute of Law. The development of such international initiatives promotes the integration of the Ukrainian school of law into the European educational space and the expansion of partnerships with leading foreign higher education institutions.
