Program Description

This programme is available in two formats; as a pathway with accreditation from the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) or without accreditation. The CIPD version has all core modules, whilst the non-accredited pathway includes some optional modules. 

On this programme students will gain an expert understanding of the role human resources play in modern organisations. They’ll be taught by world-class researchers in the Institute of Work Psychology and learn about live HR issues such as diversity, performance management, and wellbeing. When students graduate, they'll be equipped to succeed in human resources management.

Students can apply to base their dissertation on project work with an organisation. Recent projects include the review of a large organisation’s training programmes to improve engagement and reduce employee turnover.
