Hello all!
Welcome to Global Migration and Security! We are really looking forward to this course. The course introduction will be on March 25th from 13:15-15:00 and during that time we will be going over both the logistics of the course as well as introduce some of the concepts we will be using during the course. Before that meeting you can also take a look at the Course Guide to get a sense of the course. You can also begin taking a look at the schedule and readings for Module 1. Also feel free to introduce yourself over in the discussion section.
Looking forward to Thursday!
