Centre for the Study of Migration

The Centre for the Study of Migration (CFSM) aims to advance interdisciplinary research on diverse theoretical and empirical aspects of migration.

Established in 1995, the CFSM functions as a research hub drawing on the expertise of members from across Queen Mary working in collaboration with national and international partners and networks.

The research interests of colleagues range from historical to contemporary work including mixed migration flows and settlement in London; refugee and migrant health; border controls and the securitisation of migration; low-paid work and transnational migration; the migration-development nexus; migration governance; digital technology and migration; religion, society and immigration, migration and culture and representations of migrants in film and photography.  

The Centre is committed to forging equitable and sustainable partnerships with organisations working in the field of migration and diaspora in the local Tower Hamlets area, other parts of London, the UK and abroad. It provides facilities for researchers from visiting research fellows and students who wish to spend a period of migration-related study at Queen Mary.
