The School of Management has a superb support system in place to assist with career development: whilst, for many, the MSc will be the start of a journey for those without experience to enter the sector at HR advisor or officer level, for others, this programme can provide a formal qualification to recognise the experience already gained.

The MSc Human Resource Management programme has been designed specifically to enable those who have recently started their careers in HRM or who are seeking to start such a career, to gain a specialist master’s qualification in HRM. There will also be opportunities for students to continue their studies in the School at research level. In this way, the Master’s programme can be part of a career pathway for a ‘people professional’ embracing all aspects of leadership, whatever the role.
