Program Overview

As a driver and product of globalisation, migration transforms the world we live in and who we are. In today’s world, migration and forced displacement leading to refugees are core challenges.

On this MA, you’ll tackle issues shaping the life opportunities of migrants and refugees. You’ll also explore how states, NGOs and societies – in sending, transit and settlement countries – try to address these challenges. Key topics include:

  • transnationalism and diaspora
  • integration, cultural diversity and race
  • forced displacement and development.     

Sussex has a long-standing global tradition for being at the forefront of migration and refugees research. Throughout your studies, you’ll benefit from the expertise of a world-leading cohort of researchers on migration, refugees and forced displacement. You’ll be part of the Sussex Centre for Migration Research’s vibrant postgraduate community. The Centre:

  • organises bi-weekly events with leading external speakers
  • hosts an annual conference of world leading scholars
  • arranges numerous events with local and international NGOs.

These are useful networking opportunities for you to build your profile.  

You’ll deepen your knowledge in the field of migration and refugees. The skills you gain – critical thinking, writing and researching – can be applied practically in the field. When you graduate, you’ll be prepared for careers in the NGO and voluntary sectors, as well as in government and institutions. You’ll also be well equipped to pursue doctoral study and an academic career.
