Why choose this Masters’ programme?
The new MA in Refugee Protection and Forced Migration Studies by
distance-learning enables students to acquire a rigorous legal, practical and
theoretical understanding of refugee protection and forced migration, whilst
developing expertise through a choice of optional modules.
Students hone self-reliance in using and critiquing law, policy and practice in
the field, and learn how to gather, organise and deploy evidence to form
balanced judgements and develop policy recommendations. They complete
methodological training in researching refugees and have the opportunity to
develop practical field skills in advocacy, campaigning and fund-raising.

• Protecting Human Rights, Refugees and Displaced Persons in
International Law
• An Introduction to Refugee and Forced Migration Studies
• Dissertation, including Researching Refugees taught component
The cutting-edge optional modules include:
• Securing Refugee Protection in Practice (practical)
• Asylum Law in Europe: Towards Regional Harmonisation of International
Protection
• Asylum and Refugees in Africa and Latin America: Refugee Protection in
the Global South
• Advanced International Refugee Law
• Internal Displacement in Law and Policy: War and Beyond
• Statelessness, Nationality and the Protection of Stateless Persons
• Gender, Sexual Identity and Age in the Refugee Context
• Displacement, Healthcare and Humanitarian Action
Designed and run by the academic staff and wide network of experts at the
Refugee Law Initiative, the MA is delivered through the renowned University of
London International Programmes which has over 54,000 students in every corner
of the globe studying on more than 180 different courses.
Why distance learning?
The MA is unique in that it is the first ever postgraduate course on refugees
to be offered by distance-learning. Students study this two-year online
programme part-time, from the comfort of a home computer and accessing the
course content through a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE).
The distance-learning format has various benefits.
• Students can flexibly combine postgraduate study with ongoing
professional and domestic commitments. No requirement to travel to London or
even be online at set times.
• Students are able to connect with an engaged and experienced cohort of
fellow students all across the world, including students currently working in
different capacities in the field
• Students are taught by tutors who are leading experts and/or subject
specialists currently working in academic and practitioner institutions across
the globe
• Students have maximum flexibility in choosing to enter the programme in
one of two annual in-takes (October and March)
Who is it for?
This programme is designed for those who wish to develop their careers in a
range of professional contexts in the refugee, human rights or humanitarian
fields.
This includes those currently working for, or wishing to work for,
international agencies such as the United Nations High Commissioner for
Refugees (UNHCR), the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the
Red Cross movement, as well as governmental bodies and non-governmental
organisations.
