Course Objective

Today’s debates on migration are often inseparable from nations’ perceptions of themselves and each other. This course introduces students to the study of international migration and how the phenomena, perceptions, and policies towards migration reflect and shape the governance and self-perception of nation-states. By the end of the course, students will have learned key theories, concepts, and methods for the study of migration in the social sciences; can apply these to analysing migration dynamics in selected case studies and can demonstrate a critical perspective on current events surrounding migration.
