Management and Human Resources BSc Hons

Can the interests of employees and of organizations co-exist? What is the impact of the ‘gig economy’ on employee relations? What are the drivers behind communication, change, and motivation? So much can be uncovered by delving into people’s behaviors and interactions with organizations and society.

This degree focuses on understanding humans – the way they work and how their behavior can be influenced by people's management practices. We won’t teach you how to become a manager. Instead, we will explore the perspectives of both employers and employees. Join us in challenging the assumptions behind human resources and how people are managed.

You will study management theory alongside psychology, sociology, and history. Our teaching approach blends academic material with practical insights and exercises. You will be taught by academics who are tackling the big questions of the day such as Artificial Intelligence, ethnic and cultural diversity and technology.

 In your first year, you study Management and Organisational Behaviour, selecting two more subjects from either Social Sciences or the Management School.

In your second year, you will study Human Resources Management and deepen your understanding by choosing from topics such as Managing People or  Business Ethics.

The final year sees you selecting from options such as International Human Resource Management, Ethics and Sustainability, and Organisational Change.

This degree will give you a critical understanding of the complex world of work and organizations. If you are interested in how to create a happy, efficient workforce, this degree can put you on the path to a career in people management.
