The aim of the course is to introduce students to the basics of asylum and migration law at the level of international, European and national legal regulations. All three levels are closely intertwined in a given area of legal regulation. The course will acquaint students with the basic legal regulations affecting the area of migration, both in terms of forced migration (refugee and asylum issues, subsidiary and temporary protection, Common European Asylum System), and in terms of voluntary migration (individual types and purposes of foreigner's residence) to the territory and their legal regime, the legal regulation of migration of EU citizens and their family members and the regulation of migration of citizens from third countries). Other related topics will include issues of administrative expulsion and detention of foreigners, return policy and the specifics of the position of some vulnerable groups of foreigners (migrant families with children, unaccompanied minors, stateless persons).
At the end of the course students should be able to understand the main sources of legal regulation of asylum and migration, they will know their basic content and will be able to interpret them in their mutual relations.
