Overview MSc in Migration Studies DPhil in Migration Studies

COMPAS is home to the two postgraduate degrees in Migration Studies offered at the University of Oxford. Both the MSc and DPhil programmes are jointly awarded by the School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography (SAME) and the Oxford Department of International Development (ODID).

The MSc in Migration Studies links COMPAS to the Departments of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography and the Oxford Department of International Development.

The DPhil in Migration Studies is also jointly awarded by both departments. COMPAS welcomes expressions of interest from those wishing to pursue doctoral study in Migration Studies.

COMPAS welcomes opportunities for migration knowledge exchange across the University, and internationally. Student-run societies, visiting academic programmes and university-wide networks support students with an interest in migration studies to deepen their understanding of the discipline and share knowledge in an academic setting.

 

Oxford Migration Studies Society

The Oxford Migration Studies Society (OMSS), supported by COMPAS, aims to connect people examining any aspect of migration in Oxford. The society is student-run and hosts several social and networking events each year, the largest being the Annual Oxford Migration Conference. This 3-day international conference welcomes international researchers, policymakers, NGO workers and grassroots campaigners to the OMSS platform. In addition, students of the postgraduate courses are often involved in OMSS. Follow OMSS on LinkedIn or Facebook.
