Karolinska Institutet's Läkarprogrammet in Solna is a 360-credit, Swedish-taught program leading to the Läkarexamen, after which graduates can apply directly for a medical licence. Places are filled by grades, the Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test and an alternative selection (PIL); applicants from outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland pay application and tuition fees.

Medical programs

Only primary medical qualifications — the degree that leads to the physician pathway — are listed in the directory. The exact official wording is shown.

Recognition and accreditation

National authorization, institutional accreditation, program accreditation and directory listings are separate records with their own authority, status, scope and date.

Directory listing

An entry in a directory such as WDOMS. A listing is not accreditation or endorsement.

No directory reference recorded

WorldMedicalSchools.com does not accredit or approve schools and is not affiliated with WDOMS, WFME, ECFMG, WHO or any regulator. A missing record means we have not verified it, not that it does not exist. To check Karolinska Institutet in the World Directory of Medical Schools, search search.wdoms.org directly.
