Imaginative and expertly-designed human resource management (HRM) is seen by today’s leaders as central to an organisation’s success. HR practitioners are an integral part of that success, and as recognition of the distinctive contribution of human resource management grows, it is increasingly valued, both as a career in its own right and as a foundation for careers in other branches of management.
The MSc in Human Resource Management (part-time) is for students who are pursuing an HR career in the UK. Tailored to the needs of HR professionals the course is recognised by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), providing a route into the people profession in a wide range of industry sectors. We’ll consider applications from graduates of any discipline, as well as those with CIPD level 5 qualification and/or significant HR experience.
