Martin Biörklund, what made you choose the Law Programme at Karlstad Business School?
- I was born and raised in Karlstad. When I moved back after studying in Gothenburg, I decided that I wanted to become a lawyer and, by chance, Karlstad University had just established its own law programme.
What were your expectations for the degree programme – and did it live up to your expectations?
- When I was in Gothenburg, I studied the first year of a programme in engineering at Chalmers.
