Jean Monnet Postgraduate Summer School in Migration and Refugee Studies

In September 2024, the Migration and Refugee Studies Research Network at Oxford Brookes University, is holding its second online Summer School in Migration and Refugee Studies.

The Summer School lasts two weeks, from 2nd to 13th September 2024, and is delivered online only. Attendance is free.

The course is transdisciplinary, relying on the interdisciplinary strength in migration and refugee studies at Oxford Brookes University, backed up by selected external specialists.

There are two-hour classes every day, Monday to Friday for two weeks – 10 classes in total. Each class consists of an initial lecture followed by a seminar for further discussion of critical issues.

All the classes will run from 14:00 to 16:00 (UK time).

Students will be asked to form groups. Each group will give a joint presentation the Friday afternoon. The aim of the presentation is for students to address an issue which migrants and/or refugees have to deal with, and which combines at least two disciplines. The presentation will thus be multi-, inter-, or transdisciplinary.
