Course summary

Overview

This Masters in human resources is designed to meet the career development needs of human resource (HR) managers, advisers and administrators.

You will benefit from the support of our highly qualified teaching staff, whose HR expertise includes logistics, finance, tourism, IT, manufacturing and leadership. Their knowledge is extensive, current and, most importantly, is transferred to you throughout the course.

To facilitate your professional development, the course closely follows the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development (CIPD) postgraduate syllabus structure and meets the Advanced Level knowledge requirements for entry into their professional membership grade.

Course detail

On this Masters in human resource management (HRM) we will encourage you to take a critical perspective on current theory and practice. You will learn to analyse complex problems and come up with creative solutions, and you will develop the skills you need to conduct research on the latest issues in HRM.

You will learn through a number of methods. The students on this course bring a wide variety of backgrounds, academic achievements, and knowledge and experience of HRM with them. This provides a real opportunity for everyone on the course to learn with and from each other. You will use an Individual Learning Plan from the start of the course, which will help support your progress.

In the final stage of your course, you will work on a consultancy project for a real organisation with a particular HRM challenge that needs a remedy. This will be your opportunity to apply your critical thinking, research, analysis and teamwork skills in a professional environment. It will add considerably to your learning experience and demonstrate the extent of your capabilities.

Study & career progression

  • human resources officer
