The aim of this programme is to provide a broad theoretical understanding of human mobility and the role of both internal and international migration in economic and political processes, social change and globalisation as well as an overview of the major debates and literature on migration, citizenship and refugee protection from different disciplinary perspectives. The programme offers students an understanding of the complex and varied nature of migration and refugee populations, of their centrality to global, regional and national processes of political, social and economic change, and of the needs and aspirations of displaced people. The programme also helps students develop a broad understanding of academic research related to the integrated areas of migration, citizenship and refugee protection, as well as critical thinking and sound evaluative tools relevant for policy debates at all levels including potential linkages between diaspora engagement and economic development in Africa.
A good first degree in relevant area.
