從人類歷史開始，人們就從一個地方遷移到另一個地方。 他們尋求更好的工作和學校，拋棄不穩定的政治環境和有限的機會。 這些因素往往導致人們從欠發達國家移民到較發達國家。 同樣的因素也導致人們在一個國家內遷移。 移民研究了移民背後的力量、移民面臨的挑戰以及新人口豐富其社區的方式。
From the beginning of human history, people have moved from one place to another. They seek better jobs and schools and leave behind unstable political conditions and limited opportunities.

Migration examines the forces behind migration, the challenges that migrants face, and the ways in which new populations enrich their communities.
