Course summary

This course will help you to develop an understanding of how and why human resource policies and practices differ across the world. You'll examine how international companies address these challenges.

It allows you to consider these issues critically and encourages you to think more practically about the skills required to manage in an international context.

The programme will provide you with a good understanding of theoretical debates and policy issues affecting human resource management in the global context.

You'll develop an awareness of the range of possible national and regional models for the management of human resources within the globalised economy.

You'll learn about the impact of local cultural and institutional influences on the practices of global organisations.

By the end of the programme, you'll have a good working knowledge of the skills required to manage in an international context, as well as an understanding of how multinational organisations can best mobilise a culturally diverse workforce.

You'll have the opportunity to regularly engage with senior HR professionals through departmental and external networking opportunities.

What you'll study

You will take a mix of core and elective classes. The curriculum provides a good balance between theory and practice. You'll undertake an introductory HRM class early in semester 1 to prepare you for the core classes which follow. This class covers HRM concepts and functions such as:

the nature of HRM

people and their role in organisations

recruitment and selection of employees

managing people in the workplace

motivation and workplace relations

rewards and benefits

training and developing the workforce

Business Skills will help you develop and improve a range of definable skills that are pivotal to successful management practice and to effective leadership. The module also seeks to develop further more-specialised skills that are of particular significance to effective higher-level people management and provides opportunities for applied learning and continuous professional development.

Careers

As a graduate of this programme, you'll be well placed to work for organisations including global multinationals, government bodies, and global non-governmental organisations (e.g. International Labour Organisation (ILO) and UNICEF).
