Examenstillstånd

Degree-awarding authorisation (examenstillstånd) is the right to issue a particular degree, something that is examined and can be withdrawn by the central government. An institution must therefore have authorisation to be allowed to award a specific degree, and a national review decides whether the quality requirements are met. For students it means that a degree from an institution with authorisation is formally recognised.
