Providing research opportunities on migration issues at the theoretical and empirical level from different disciplinary angles, MiReKoc promotes multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research practices. In both cases, originality is the primary concern. While quantitative and qualitative research are considered equally important, the Program encourages the use of the diversity of research methods available, such as survey research, ethnographic research, fieldwork and archival research. The main disciplines which contribute to the Program are economics, sociology, anthropology, political science, international relations, history, law, demography, urban studies, geography, psychology and education.
