International Migration and Social Cohesion (MISOCO) 
Press release of the University of Osnabrück The Joint European Master in International Migration and Social Cohesion (MISOCO) is a two-year international Master's program with the support of the Erasmus Mundus program of the European Union which offers selected students the unique opportunity of studying international migration in three European countries. The program seeks to explore the critical elements of international migration and the incorporation of immigrants into the society of destination. Its aim is to educate students in advanced theories, techniques, and methodologies in the field of Migration Studies, so they will be able to translate perceived societal problems into relevant social scientific research questions and contribute to the solution of such problems by combining insights from fundamental social theory joined with substantive theories. The MISOCO Master’s Program is offered by the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands) in collaboration with the University of Deusto in Bilbao (Spain), University College Dublin (Ireland), the University of Latvia in Riga (Latvia), and the IMIS at the University of Osnabrück (Germany). Students will study in three European countries. The first year is undertaken at the University of Amsterdam (1st semester) and the University of Deusto (2nd semester), both offering consolidated expertise in theoretical and methodological approaches to migration studies. The second year is used for specialization at one of the other European institutes. The University College Dublin, University of Latvia or IMIS at the University of Osnabrück will provide students with focused teaching and research in their specialized areas under the supervision of leading experts. Additional opportunities for an exchange with universities outside Europe are planned for the future. Degree: Master
