This module will help you develop a critical understanding of the theory and practice associated with managing people.
You’ll explore how organisations are shaped by internal and external environmental contexts and how people management practices are designed to reflect sector trends, performance, and productivity indicators.
We’ll support you in developing your understanding of research methods and methodologies, while also furthering your understanding of key research issues in the field of HRM.
During this phase of your course, you’ll learn how to evaluate and justify the use of specific methodologies when addressing various HRM issues. You’ll also discover how to evaluate research that influences organisational policy and practice.
This module will give you the chance to analyse, explore, and assess the challenges and complexities for people management in organisations that operate across multiple nations and cultures.
Your studies will focus on how to devise and implement HRM processes that are ethically responsive and sustainable – while still considering any differences in working practices, cultures, and institutional factors.
For this part of the programme, we’ll shift focus to how HRM strategy can identify and respond to global trends and challenges.
You’ll learn the extent to which workforce planning can help organisations respond to trends, and how to evaluate the extent to which data can influence people management. The module will also help build your understanding of how laws and regulations might impact an HRM practice.
This final stage of your course will challenge you to undertake an academic or practice-oriented research project that addresses an HRM-related issue or question.
At the start of the module, you’ll be presented with several research projects associated with your chosen discipline from which you can choose from. A project supervisor will then be assigned to aid you in developing ideas and planning the project.
By successfully completing the project, you’ll fortify your ability to independently analyse research findings, evaluate the effectiveness of different research methods, and critically reflect on your own conclusions to apply them to your practice.

It’s certainly no understatement to say that people lie at the heart of every business.
Even as the world grows more technologically advanced, it’s an organisation’s people who identify market needs, craft compelling stories to connect with audiences – and of course, collaborate to produce new products.
