Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Business Management - Human Resource Management (NN26) (Placement Year)

Program Description

Career-focused, the degree incorporates general business management as well as the tools, techniques and specialist knowledge to manage human resources (HR) effectively. Students will put theory into practice coaching other students, designing assessments, conducting interviews and more. This provides valuable experience and a genuine appreciation of how HR fits within the broader business landscape, preparing them to make a positive impact for future employers from the get-go.

How an organisation manages its people has a direct impact on both their mindset and productivity, making HR Management (HRM) a core function in every business. This course will equip students with the breadth of knowledge, skills and capabilities to develop positive working cultures and respond proactively and creatively to contemporary business issues and challenges, such as change management.

The emphasis is very much on experiential learning. Students will be taught by staff who are or have been HR professionals, bringing their real-life case work into the classroom, showing them how the HR theories, tools and techniques they are learning can be put into practice. Students will also hear direct from industry practitioners, such as experienced HR Directors, Heads of HR and HR Consultants.
