Course Summary

This programme provides a route for those with a Level 7 qualification in an HR related field to 'top-up' to an MSc in Global Human Resource Management.

Overview

This programme is tailored to students with the ambition to become leaders and practitioners at the interface of Human Resources and Corporate Strategy.

As a Top-Up course, this programme is aimed at those working in the HR profession who have already completed a HR related qualification at 120 credits (Level 7) to progress to an MSc by taking an additional 60 credits.

The programme curriculum benefits from our faculty’s research expertise in organisational studies and their practitioner links with Human Resources-related professions, including the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development (CIPD).?

Career options

Graduates may choose to advance their careers in a variety of Human Resource Management specialisms such as organisational development, employee engagement, learning and development, performance management, reward and talent acquisition by undertaking a dissertation in a specialist area.

Students can also use the knowledge they have gained to perform at a higher level within the HR profession in their current industry or take an opportunity to transition to a new role or sector such as setting up their own business as a career or HR consultant.

Modules

This module will equip you with the knowledge and critical techniques in order to conduct research in business and management. We will address the different kinds of research, especially scholarly, academic output and applied consultancy output, whilst the module's practical emphasis is upon facilitating research methods for empirical research in the programme's capstone project. You will learn about the different approaches that can be taken to undertake research and how research methods are underpinned by different philosophical perspectives. Through the taught classes you will critically evaluate the different factors that impact upon research design, the quality of empirical fieldwork and the final research's dissemination, and explore different approaches to using academic literature. You will explore the implications of your research design on constructing your research tools and planning your data analysis or consultancy intervention. We will also outline the importance of research ethics for any human interaction involved in your research. This module is essential in supporting you to begin your capstone project (dissertation or consultancy project) and the content should be revisited once you begin your capstone project.
