For the first time in Scandinavia, Lund University is offering a specialised graduate course in European and International Tax Law. This Masters course is designed to meet the market´s demand for cutting-edge knowledge on multi-jurisdictional tax issues. It provides an opportunity to study the legal rules dealing with European and International tax problems, both from a direct and an indirect tax perspective, in a dynamic setting with students from around the world. The Master course runs from September to June on a full time basis. The two semesters are each split up into two parts, of which the first focuses on the functioning of direct (income tax) and indirect taxes (VAT, excises and customs). This part also focuses on studies on the relation between taxation and public finance, comparative tax law issues, sources of EU law and an introduction to International Tax Law among other subjects. The second part of the semester deals with subjects such as the methods of interpretation of European Union Law applied to taxes, the Internal Market and taxes, customs union and indirect taxes, access to the fundamental freedoms in the EU Treaty and judicial remedies. The students will be able to specialise in the second semester in either direct or indirect taxation. The course on direct taxation will deal with both positive and negative integration and individual and corporate taxation. The course on indirect taxation focuses on the European VAT (value added tax) system, the harmonized system for excises and customs treatment in the EU. In particular, the relation between the indirect taxes is treated extensively. On the second part of the second semester the master thesis is carried out. Graduates from this programme will be well prepared for jobs as tax administrators, tax consultants and tax policy-makers. The Masters degree may also benefit judges dealing with tax law issues and can serve as good preparation for PhD studies in European and International Taxation.
