LRR Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I'm looking for a PhD program focusing on migration. I would like to have it situated within justice studies / human rights. Other possibilities are population studies or possibly demographics. An interdisciplinary program would appeal to me. ASU has what appears to be a great program, but I'm curious as to what other possibilities are out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barilicious Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 The University of Texas at Austin is one of the top demography programs in the country, and they have numerous faculty working on migration studies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apop Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 If you're willing to study outside of the states the University of Western Ontario has an excellent Migration and Ethnic Studies program that is interdisciplinary. You must apply to a discipline in the social sciences: sociology, anthropology, history, etc and then, if accepted, you are eligible to join the program. I am a newcomer to the program and am very excited about getting involved; it looks like they provide some excellent opportunities (not to mention funding; I am an international student but received a full scholarship!). Also, because it is interdisciplinary I will have the chance to explore ideas from viewpoints that are not specific to my field. Intriguing stuff. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
