This program has been developed to enable students to study marine insurance at the highest educational level, and is delivered by distance learning, making it available to students based anywhere in the world.

It lasts for eleven months, with an intake each summer, and is made up of five modules. The first module covers the fundamental principles of insurance law and provides students with a foundation for indepth studies of insurance against marine risks. The subsequent modules deal with various categories of insurance cover for marine property, interests and liabilities, and claims, as well as the specialised area of re-insurance. To provide students with an opportunity to meet and interact with the program faculty and fellow students, there are two short, non-compulsory seminars.

Students are assessed by four written assignments and the program ends with a final examination which is held in Malmö and London, but which may also be arranged elsewhere on request.

Fees and costs

The fee for the program is £4,850 in 2010/11, but is subject to a rise in price each year. The fee covers course materials, required text books, the seminars and the examination in Malmö or London, as well as tutorial support and feedback. It does not include the costs of travel and accommodation for the seminars and examination. Students must cover the costs of any special arrangements they may request, such as the delivery of course materials by special courier or an
alternative examination location.
