Course description
In this course students will learn how to apply anthropological skills and toolkits to address contemporary challenges relating to migration and current world issues, including displacement and forced migration. The experiences of refugees, asylum seekers, guest workers, astronaut families, displaced peoples, indigenous people, settlers, and colonists among others will inform our understanding of historical and contemporary migration and provide a grounding in the anthropological studies of migration and identity.
