About the course

What can I expect out of this qualification?

Graduates will have knowledge of the interdisciplinary theoretical and comparative literature on human migration, which they will use to analyse practical and theoretical problems. They will communicate their ideas effectively in writing and orally. Their knowledge will inform their roles in public sector agencies and non-governmental bodies that work on human migration. Some graduates will be able to continue to the Postgraduate Diploma in Migration Studies (VI002G) or the Master of Migration Studies (VI001Z). The PGCertMigS also acts as an exit qualification for the PGDipMigS and MMigs.
