Description

Managers face complex challenges related to human resource (HR) strategy and practice. In the field of human resource management (HRM), new issues and roles are being defined, and HR professionals are expected to participate as strategic business partners. The ability to effectively attract, select, develop and retain valued employees is critical for competitive advantage and success of the organisation.

The faculty's human resource management discipline is designed to develop expertise in managing HR in the context of external and organisational change, new employment relationships, globalisation and a changing workforce. Students will develop an understanding of strategic HRM and its importance in enhancing organisational performance, and of the challenges of implementing HR strategies into organisations.

The discipline provides comprehensive coverage of key theoretical and research developments in the field and emphasises practical skill development and industry relevance.
