It is a academic degree awarded by the Swedish institution prior to a PhD degree. In Sweden a ‘licentiate’ degree equals the completion of half of the coursework, or thesis, required for a full doctoral programme, i.e. a licentiate degree corresponds to two years of full-time study and at least 60 credits (120 credits required for some institutions) have to be awarded for a licentiate thesis. It is equivalent to the MPhil of the British education system.
