        "assessmentMethods": "Buckingham prides itself on the focused and high-quality teaching that it provides to students. With one of the most favourable staff-to-student ratios in the United Kingdom, the University is able to give students individualised supervision tailored to their needs. Its small-group seminars have therefore been a strength of the University from its founding.\n\nThe MA in Migration History employs a stimulating variety of teaching strategies, including traditional lectures and seminar discussions, workshops with partner institutions, class visits to relevant cultural institutions and archive collections, and a week-long study trip to Paris.\n\nA number of core modules are designed to instil skills crucial to the study of migration history and provide a comprehensive grounding in the history of emigration and immigration in the British Isles. Meanwhile, students can tailor their studies to their particular interests by choosing among optional modules on subjects such as the history of political and religious asylum, international cultural transmission, and the intersection of global empire and global movement. In the spring, students make a week-long study visit to Paris, to gain a further comparative and international perspective on these subjects, and begin work on their dissertations. The dissertation, submitted at the end of the summer, will allow students to make a serious and distinct contribution to the rapidly growing field of Migration History.\n\nFor more details, please feel free to contact the Programme Director Thomas Jones: thomas.jones@buckingham.ac.uk.",

    "summary": "The MA in Migration History: People, Objects, Cultures offers a unique opportunity to undertake advanced study of one of the oldest, most constant, and still searingly relevant phenomena in human history: the movement of people, both voluntarily and involuntarily, across borders.\n\n**Key features**\n- Unique postgraduate degree: focusing on the history of international migration over several centuries, from the early modern era to the present.\n\n\n- Diverse in approach: emphasises political, economic, cultural, intellectual, and imperial explanations for and interpretations of migration history.\n\n\n- Visits to and workshops in key archives and cultural institutions in the UK and abroad.\n\n\n- Taught in Bloomsbury, in central London.\n\n\n- Study week in Paris during the Spring term.\n\n\n**Structure of the course**\nThe MA in Migration History is a taught Master’s, based in Bloomsbury in central London, which runs for one year, from September to September. In the autumn, winter, and spring terms, students take a range of modules, each of which is dedicated either to the history of migration in a particular geographical region, including a comprehensive grounding in the history of emigration and immigration in the British Isles, or to specific themes in migration history, from the role of war and repression in generating mass exoduses of refugees to the transoceanic movements forced and facilitated by the rise of global empires. These modules will meet weekly at Buckingham’s London campus at 51 Gower Street, and will consist of a mixture of lectures, seminar discussions, and class visits to relevant archives, libraries, and museums.\n\nIn the spring and summer terms, students undertake a significant and independent research project in the form of a dissertation. Students may write their dissertation on any subject to do with migration history, so long as there is sufficient evidence to illuminate it. Students’ supervisors, as well as the knowledge, skills, and experience of working with relevant primary and secondary sources acquired during the taught modules, will help students to select and hone a dissertation topic of their choice.",
