MSc Human Resource Management
This programme is available for study in both full-time and part-time formats and students can complete either the 180 credit Masters programme or the 120 credit Diploma programme.
The Diploma programme contains all of the taught elements of the Masters programme and can be completed in 9 months full-time or 21 months part-time.
Students on the full-time MSc programme undertake the dissertation element of the programme between June and September or during the ten months following the completion of the taught element of the programme for part-time (30-months) students on the MSc programme.
Students on the part-time 24-month fast-track variant cover the same subjects and assessments as those on the longer standard programme. They do so, however, in a shorter, more concentrated time frame. This involves attending classes on two afternoons a week. It also involves attending classes on two afternoons a week for a period in the second term and starting to work on the dissertation a year earlier than those who are enrolled on the 30-month programme.
Students on the 30-month part-time variant will generally be taught on one afternoon a week.
The modules we outline here provide examples of what you can expect to learn on this degree course based on recent academic teaching. The precise modules available to you in future years may vary depending on staff availability and research interests, new topics of study, timetabling and student demand.

Our Human Resource Management MSc is available in two formats:
The CIPD-accredited pathway has a specific list of core modules and optional modules, while the non-accredited pathway contains a wider range of optional modules.
By undertaking an MSc in Human Resource Management you'll develop a detailed and thorough understanding of the role human resources play in modern organisations in the private, public and voluntary sectors.
You will be taught by world-class researchers from across the Management School and will learn about a diverse range of topics including pay, performance management, recruitment and retention, strategic management, skills and workforce development, worker voice and representation, and international HRM.
You will also learn about how to conduct research which involves designing a research project, obtaining ethical approval, undertaking qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis, and applying theoretical knowledge to explain empirical data.
The final element of the MSc HRM is the authoring of a substantive piece of independent research in the form of either a dissertation or a company project. The latter involves working with an organisation such as a private company, a public organisation or a charity to produce a piece of research in conjunction with them. Throughout your dissertation/company project, you will receive personalised supervision from an academic who will offer guidance on your project.
Upon graduation, you'll be equipped with the necessary knowledge and experience to succeed and flourish in human resources management, both in the UK and internationally.
We use a staged admissions process to assess applications for this course. You'll still apply for this course in the usual way, using our Postgraduate Online Application Form.

In the first semester we give you a grounding in the key concepts and practices of HRM, the practical skills needed by HRM professionals, and the business context that HR contributes to. In the second semester you're given the opportunity to choose from a selection of specialist HR topics. The final semester of the course involves a consultancy case study – where you'll get an opportunity to act as a HR consultant to fictional companies, with realistic HR problems to solve.
The list below shows compulsory and illustrative option modules for this course. Option modules are revised over time and, in some cases, will be dependent upon pre-requisite and/or co-requisites being taken. The options available each year can be subject to change due to student demand and availability of teaching staff.
This is a one-year, full-time course of two taught semesters, followed by a further three-month independent study period, where you'll work on a consultancy case study.
You'll be taught through a mixture of lectures, seminars, workshops, presentations and practical case study exercises. Where possible, we further support your learning and development through guest presentations from HR managers and staff from local organisations.
You’ll be assessed through a variety of methods including examinations and essays, as well as group video presentations and other electronic media to produce summaries and/or reports. Compulsory modules are usually assessed with a minimum of one open assessment (essay or report), and one closed examination at the end of the module. Professional Skills for HRM requires you to compile video and written evidence of the core HRM skills taught on the module.
Each 20-credit module includes 40 contact hours of teaching. Contact hours comprise a mixture of lectures and seminars, or workshops.
Our lectures will introduce you to the concepts and theories of HR, helping you put into context the additional reading and preparatory work needed for seminars. In addition to the 40 classroom hours, each module will involve an additional 40 hours of preparatory reading and exercises, necessary for seminar discussions. Workshops combine taught content with practical activities, and are usually taught in longer classes of about 3-4 hours.
In a typical week, you can expect to be in scheduled classes for approximately 15 hours per week and this can rise to around 20 hours per week in the October-November period. Guided reading and preparation activities are in addition to the time required to fulfil assessment requirements such as essays and reports.

We understand how important it is to know your timetable in advance for planning around work, childcare, or other responsibilities. Here's some basic guidance on what to expect regarding your student timetable.
As a rough estimate, full-time postgraduate students in the College of Business and Social Sciences should expect to spend about 12-15 hours per week in lectures and on-campus seminars. This is in addition to independent study, and there may be additional guided learning activities during certain weeks. The exact distribution of these hours will vary depending on your course and module choices. |
Part-time students will have fewer weekly on-campus hours compared to full-time students. This reduction is proportional to the number of modules you're enrolled in. |
Complete timetables are usually released shortly before the start of your programme. This timing is necessary to ensure that we accommodate all course requirements and that rooms are allocated based on the number of students likely to enrol on each programme. We aim to provide these timetables as early as possible, to assist you in your planning. |
As your induction week approaches, you will be sent more information about your timetable via email, and you will be able to access your timetable by logging into MyAstonPortal. For any further queries or information regarding your timetable, you can reach out to your programme director or the Student Support team.
The above information also applies to students enrolled in online/distance learning programmes. Please note that both full-time and part-time distance learning students are still required to attend scheduled synchronous learning sessions. |

In the current VUCA world, all HR professionals need to be agile in their approach to learning and sensitive to the changing environment. By providing a comprehensive and extensive curriculum, this programme enabled us to upskill and reskill ourselves. It equipped us not only with HR knowledge, but also with a business mindset while strengthening our strategic thinking towards crisis and change. The programme continually reviewed new knowledge, helping us to stay up-to-date with the latest HR trends. In a hybrid teaching environment, the effort that the professors put into different case studies, discussions, and reflections inspired new insights and developed our core role as change agents. It was also a good platform for meeting classmates from different backgrounds to share ideas and experiences, thus generating new ways of thinking. To me, learning is a lifelong journey. This programme was definitely a milestone in enhancing myself as an HR professional.
LIU Po Ling, Pauline
This programme provided me not only with knowledge about professional human resource management and a blueprint of how businesses run in the real world, it also equipped me with valuable soft skills to better handle problems at work and in life.
Specifically, attending well-designed lectures by diverse lecturers – some with an academic background and some with an industry background – enhanced my theoretical background and helped me integrate theory and real-world practice. Guided by first-class scholars and professionals, I learned to think critically and differently. Completing multiple group assignments with my peers dramatically improved my leadership skills, my communication style, my time and project management skills, and my problem-solving strategies. Last but probably most important, doing a research project with my supervisor Dr Seunghoo Chung turned me into a lifelong learner and provided me with more opportunities and possibilities for the future.
At the end of the day, how we think about the world is how we excel and distinguish ourselves from others. This programme shaped us in this way, which made it the most valuable investment of my life.
LAN Weifang, Nicole
Greetings! I'm Jan, and I've recently completed my part-time MSc in Human Resource Management at Hong Kong Polytechnic University. With a background in Administration, HR, and event management, I entered this journey with a determination to contribute, particularly amidst the challenges of COVID-19. The transition from face-to-face to online classes was seamless, thanks to our dedicated lecturers' support. Virtual learning, with interactive tools like polls and breakout sessions, proved surprisingly engaging.
This program's adaptability and the insights from guest speakers were exceptional. Networking opportunities with industry leaders and valuable electives like negotiation and mediation enriched not just my work life, but my daily interactions. The coaching program was a standout, providing deep insights into workplace behaviors and tendencies. Guided by a skilled coach, I honed a more critical professional approach, reminding me to stay aware of potential blind spots.
Reflecting on this study experience, I've discovered a passion for people-centric approaches and the vital role of culture in organizations. Post-COVID, I'm eager to foster positive corporate cultures prioritizing employee well-being. My heartfelt thanks go to lecturers, coaches, and classmates for making this journey so memorable. Together, we've formed enduring connections and shared invaluable lessons.

Organisations today face complex challenges related to people management and leadership, such as attracting and retaining top talent, ensuring employee engagement and well-being, and adapting to rapid technological changes.

The programme is delivered through a combination of lectures, case studies, class discussions and group projects. Assessment is through written examinations, individual/group coursework, and a 12,000-word dissertation project.

Students typically study four compulsory modules, each worth 15 credits in each of Terms 1 and 2. Each taught module in Terms 1 and 2 is delivered over 10 weeks, with 3 contact hours per week comprising lecture content and interactive components. For the preparation of these modules, students spend approximately 7-12 hours per week on assessment and independent study for each module. The total number of weekly hours will vary according to the module and the activities being undertaken. The Dissertation project takes place over Term 3.
In addition to the core modules, the programme includes multiple bootcamps throughout the year, where industry leaders visit to teach the latest knowledge and techniques in data analytics, artificial intelligence, organisational design, and future of work.
