The Master's degree in Migration Studies and New Societies, fully taught in English,  is an Erasmus Mundus Joint programme with Charles University of Prague and University of Warsaw.

It offers experiences of student-mobility of the duration necessary to get the 30 ECTS at each of the partner universities. In order to ensure great and effective support for students, this Master Degree has been structured following all the requirements provided by the Erasmus+ Guidelines for the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees. During the time required for obtaining the EMJM grants, students may rely on Erasmus+ scholarships, allocated on the basis of the specific agreements concluded with the partner universities involved in the 4EU+ European University Alliance (https://www.unimi.it/en/international/university-milan-world/international-agreements), which may be supplemented by the University funding for disadvantaged students.

It is therefore expected that students will spend at least one of the four semesters at each of the partner universities. 

The final objectives of Migration Studies and New Societies are to provide students with an in-depth understanding of social and political opportunities and challenges posed by global and intra-EU migration and to enable them to acquire competencies and analytical tools for interpreting complex political or socio-economic phenomena in a critical way and for appraising their normative, social, political and anthropological implications.

On the basis of the knowledge acquired during the training course, the graduated students will be therefore able  to:

  • contribute to the actions of international and national governmental and non-governmental organisations and bodies;
  • to handle tasks and functions concerning the management of migration flows and the integration of migrants, with particular expertise in the European scenario.

Accordingly, the programme supports the acquisition of methodological tools for examining empirical phenomena, for explaining their dynamics, and for anticipating their evolution as well as the reinforcement of logic and argumentative skills. The interaction between lecturers and students coming from different European countries aims at fostering educational learning pathways based on dialogue between subjects with different nationality, experience and background. The teaching activities of the Master Degree in Migration Studies and New Societies are mainly organised in seminars and they are designed to follow a student-centered approach, by using innovative teaching methods (e. g. : flipped classroom, laboratory teaching, clinics, case-studies, etc. ), in full accordance with the guidelines issued by the "4 EU+ European University Alliance" programme.
