Introduction
This MA has quickly become one of the largest programs on forced migration anywhere in the world. The programme provides a solid legal, practical, and theoretical understanding of refugee protection and forced migration.
You will become more independent in managing and critiquing law, policy, and practice, and also in gathering, organizing, and deploying evidence to form balanced judgments and develop policy recommendations.
How you study
The programme is available online and is fully supported by a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), as well as study materials and help from academic staff. It allows you to study anywhere in the world and fit your studies around your other commitments.
Study materials
You receive individual module subject guides, assessment activities, and digitized readings. The two primary texts for the core modules are books, which will be useful reference points throughout your studies.
For each module, you will be able to discuss your work with fellow students and tutors. Supplementary information is provided via podcasts and videos from leading academics.
You can also benefit from research materials created by the Refugee Law Initiative, such as its Working Paper Series and podcasts from public events.
Online support
When you register, we will give you access to your Student Portal. You can then access your University of London email account and other key resources:
The Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) enables access to course materials, resources, and forums to discuss course material and work collaboratively with others. Tutors are available to answer queries and promote discussion during the study year through the VLE.
The Online Library(Opens in new window) provides access to over 100 million academic electronic items comprising E-books, E-journals, conference proceedings, etc. In addition, students can request items that are not held in the library via the library's Inter-Library loans service with the British Library.
Senate House Library provides free reference access for all registered distance and flexible learning students.
