With over fifteen (15) graduate students from a range of nationalities, professional and disciplinary backgrounds, CMS is one of the most diverse and vibrant centres in the West African sub-region offering advanced degrees in Migration Studies. Our inter-disciplinary nature of research and teaching, the relationship between theory and practice, coupled with the calibre of students and the Centre's exploits within the University of Ghana makes it an intellectually exciting environment for graduate studies. We encourage students without prior experience of migration studies to apply.

Our PhD programme is a four year individual research programme. The MPhil is a two-year research-based degree whilst our MA is a one year programme that combines taught courses and a dissertation.
