MSc in Forced Migration

by admin — last modified 2009-10-04 13:56

The Refugee Studies Centre (RSC), was founded in 1982. It is an integral part of ODID. The Centre carries out multi-disciplinary research, including policy relevant work, on the causes and consequences of forced migration. Research at the RSC is currently organized around the following three broad areas of investigation: Forced migration, GLOBAL ECONOMY AND GOVERNANCE; the experience and management of displacement; and institutional and normative responses to forced migration. In addition to its research programme, the Centre offers a nine-month multi-disciplinary taught Master of Science (MSc) degree course in Forced Migration.


"The MSc in Forced Migration was a fantastic intellectual and personal experience. The RSC consists of academics who are both leaders in their fields and invested in helping students pursue and develop their areas of interest and research. The other students had an extraordinary set of backgrounds and experiences, greatly contributing to classroom discussions. We became a true community of students, working together and learning from each other both in and out of the classroom."
