This master’s programme will provide you with advanced knowledge of the legal aspects of migration, asylum, non-discrimination, immigrant ‘integration’, and diversity. It offers you insights from different academic disciplines at Leiden University, Delft University, and Erasmus University Rotterdam. Along with your legal classes, you will attend courses at all three universities and will gain expertise on governing migration and diversity from the perspectives of, for example, history, sociology, and political sciences.

• You can obtain a legal degree at master level (LL.M) and study the governance of migration and diversity from a wider perspective at the same time.

• You will gain in-depth knowledge of the legal framework regulating migration, asylum, and non-discrimination at international and European level.

• You will follow courses offered by leading experts from three universities in five academic disciplines (law, history, sociology, political sciences, and development studies).

Graduates, depending on their bachelor qualification, will be obtaining civil effect in the Netherlands and will be able to access the Dutch bar. You could also think of positions in: 

• Business organisations (e.g. HR, consultancy);

• Governmental organisations (policymakers, policy advisors, lobbyists);

• Organisations in civil society (e.g. unions, political parties, research institutes) on a local, national or international level.
