About the course

A three-year, 180-credit bachelor’s programme taught in English on international migration and ethnic relations. Check the programme page for the module list and teaching approach.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • University Admissions in Sweden accepts the Leaving Certificate for general entry if you took at least six subjects, with at least two at Higher Level. Predicted grades are not accepted: places are ranked on final grades, so you need your actual results when you apply.
  • Malmö University requires English 6 (English B) for all programmes; a Leaving Cert English result of Ordinary Level O6 (or D) or better meets this. Check the programme page for any further specific requirements, and University Admissions will decide whether your Leaving Cert subjects match them.

How to apply

  1. Check the programme pageRead the entry requirements and any specific course requirements on the Malmö University programme page before applying.
  2. Apply onlineApply at universityadmissions.se between 16 October 2026 and 15 January 2027 for autumn 2027 entry.
  3. Upload documents by 1 February 2027Upload your final Leaving Certificate results and a copy of your passport or ID card. If you miss this deadline your application is treated as late.
  4. Check results on 8 April 2027Admission results for bachelor’s programmes are published on 8 April 2027. Follow any reply instructions on universityadmissions.se and arrange housing in Malmö before the autumn start.
Deadline for Irish/EU applicants: Autumn 2027 first (international) round: applications open 16 October 2026 and close 15 January 2027 at universityadmissions.se. Supporting documents (including final Leaving Cert results and proof of EU citizenship) are due by 1 February 2027. Bachelor’s results are published on 8 April 2027. A second round for EU/EEA applicants runs until 15 April 2027, but Leaving Cert results arrive only in late August, after both rounds, so most Irish applicants apply with final results the year after their Leaving Cert..

Costs

  • No tuition fee and no application fee for Irish and other EU/EEA citizens. You must upload a copy of your passport or national ID card at universityadmissions.se by the document deadline to prove citizenship. Non-EU students pay 325,000 SEK for the full programme.
Places are ranked on final Leaving Cert grades and predicted grades are not accepted, so in practice most Irish students apply the year after their Leaving Cert.
