This degree program is designed to equip candidates for critical engagement with theories and practices of migration and displacement, making it suitable for those who want to advance their scholarly training in migration studies. With migration being an important and hotly debated topic worldwide, the study of migration has wide-ranging academic and practical applications.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants seeking admission to the MA in Migration and Displacement program must possess a strong Honours or four-year undergraduate degree with an average of 65% or above in a social science or related discipline. However, candidates with relevant professional experience will also be considered. The university offers limited fellowship support to exceptional students from other African countries.<\/p>\n<p>The MA by research is intended for advanced students with prior social science research experience, a background in migration studies, and the desire for advanced scholarly training. Successful completion of a research report of approximately 50,000 words is the sole criterion for evaluation in this program.<\/p>\n<p>South African students are encouraged to apply for support from the University to pursue the MA in Migration and Displacement program.
