This masterclass offers a practical introduction to UK immigration law. Over three sessions, students will learn about the key legal instruments underpinning immigration law and their practical application. Students will gain a basic understanding of the various routes available for migrants wishing to visit or live in the UK, from tourist visas to asylum claims, as well as student, work and human rights routes. The course will also look at the more violent aspects of immigration control and borders, including detention and deportation. Case studies will be integrated throughout, offering students the opportunity to analyse the real-world application and implications of immigration law.
