Location of University of Oxford
The Refugee Studies Centre (RSC), was founded in 1982. It is an integral part of the Oxford Department of International Development. 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.
This nine-month course aims to provide students with a broad understanding of the complex and varied nature of forced migration and its centrality to global processes of social, economic and political change, as well as the needs and aspirations of forced migrants themselves. Students are assessed by written papers and examination at the end of the third term. They are expected to satisfy the examiners in three examination papers and two essays.
