MSc Human Resource Management

The MSc Human Resource Management is an intensive master's-level specialist programme designed for ambitious graduates from any academic background who wish to develop their knowledge and skills in the practice, theory and policy of the world of work. This 12-month full-time programme will appeal to students who want to develop an understanding of the key global challenges facing Human Resource Management today. These challenges include, but are not limited to: The role new technologies are having on the workplace including the management of flexible working practices, or how algorithmic management is shaping working conditions. Social inequalities such as gender impacting career opportunities and outcomes. The presence of exploitative working practices. Climate change and the need for sustainable working practices and careers. The programme will not only explore issues such as the above, but it will also focus on solutions through management practice and alternative forms of organisation. We aim to develop analytical and confident critical thinkers through research-led teaching. You will gain insight into the nature of Human Resource Management and the complexity of organisations from a variety of disciplines.
