People strategy that builds high-performing, fair organisations
Online only
Human resource management is both a craft and a strategic system. This MSc equips you to design talent acquisition, performance, reward, learning and employee relations systems that create organisational capability while meeting legal and ethical standards. You will practise evidence-based HR, workforce analytics and inclusive design, and complete a consultancy-style capstone with a live or simulated organisational client. Ideal for aspiring HR business partners, people operations leaders and line managers taking strategic people responsibility.
Curriculum informed by CIPD professional standards and contemporary research on high-performance work systems. Stacks upward from the Graduate Certificate in Human Resources for career switchers.
