International Migration Studies


Explanation:
This might be a case where you keep the Italian but offer an explanation in English in parentheses. I think the Italian sounds like a slightly spooky euphemism for studying immigration and assimilation issues but I am not sure. Similar programs in Europe use the word "Migration" and in the USA they might also be called "Immigration and Ethnic Identity" or similarly.
