The Centre for Migration
Studies (CMS) was established in its present form in 1998. It developed from
the previous Centre for Emigration Studies at the Ulster American Folk Park,
Omagh, bringing together and building on 3 main elements: the Library, established
in the early 1980s; the Irish Emigration Database Project, begun in 1988;
and the Masters degree in Irish Migration Studies, taught since 1996.
Vision and Mission
The Centre for Migration Studies vision is that of 'an informed community,
confidently and creatively engaged with its migration history, culture and
heritage'. The CMS mission is 'to serve the community as a leading
international institution for the study of human migration, focusing on the
peoples of Ireland world-wide'.
