Business Management (Human Resource Management)

About

It's a competitive time for businesses right now, and getting the best out of a workforce is vital for success across all industry sectors. Graduates who understand how people and culture can help an organisation grow are now well placed to enter successful careers.

Our BA (Hons) Business Management (Human Resource Management) has been developed with input from world-leading organisations and researchers to bring traditional human resource management practices into the modern era. The course will introduce you to the latest principles and practices of successful HR functions, without the outdated concept of the employee as a commodity for business success.

Your course begins by helping you develop broad knowledge in key areas of business management, including managing people and an introduction to how modern organisations function. In your second and third study levels you'll explore subjects covering the development of high performance teams, talent management, rewarding performance, people analytics, and other key areas that you'll find indispensable in the workplace.

This degree has dual accreditation from the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) and the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM). Not only will you graduate with a recognised degree, but you'll also receive a CMI Level 5 Certificate in Management and Leadership and an ILM Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management. This will help you show employers that you have both the modern skills and professional recognition to fill current skills gaps in the field.
