MSc in Migration Studies

The interdisciplinary MSc in Migration Studies allows students to explore human mobility as an intrinsic part of the broader processes of development and global change; and to address the causes and consequences of migration and how governments, societies, and migrants themselves shape these.

The School of Anthropology (SAME) and the Oxford Department of International Development (ODID) jointly offer the programme. The course draws on the intellectual resources of its two parent departments and migration research centres at Oxford.
