What do you remember from your years as a student? 
The years went by quickly and there was a wonderful atmosphere at the university. There was an excellent opportunity to study abroad and the close proximity between the different departments promoted cooperation and diverse perspectives. Umeå has a thriving cultural life with the Norrlands Opera, the indie pop scene, and Bildmuseet to name just a few things.

After Emma Fällman earned her law degree, she started working at the Swedish Crime Victims Authority (Brottsoffermyndigheten). She then served as a notary in a district court before joining a law firm.

"My law degree has been the foundation of professional career, enabling me to thrive both as an attorney and in the courtroom."
