- Due to the complex interrelation between different jurisdictions and fields of law, international migration and refugee law must be analyzed from a multitude of angles and disciplines. This specialization studies international migration from the perspective of international and European law and focuses on how they function in domestic legal orders.
- The interplay between international, European, and domestic law is a specific focus of this specialization and enables students to understand and analyze the complexity of the key issues of contemporary International Migration and Refugee Law.
- During the master's program, students will also have plenty of opportunities to work on their skillset. Clearly, students will train their academic skills in all courses offered during the master's. Students can enhance their writing skills in the compulsory course Refugee and Family Migration Law (in which you write a paper) and in the courses Irregular Migration, Philosophy of international law and migration, and the Migration Law Clinic. Students can use these writing skills while writing their master's thesis. Oral skills will be practiced during the moot courts and working groups of the compulsory course Migration and Legal Remedies. The Migration Law Clinic offers students the chance to define and work on their own learning goals, such as cooperation skills or communication skills and reflect on the development of those skills during the course. Master students are encouraged to enhance their skills by taking part in extracurricular activities, such as Know Your Rights (becoming a buddy of a refugee/asylum seeker), writing blogs, taking part in moot court competitions, or presenting work experiences to their fellow students.
