BA Business Management (Human Resource Management)
About this course
Business management with human resource management is a combination that reflects the growing recognition that people are an organisation's most important asset, and that managing them well requires both commercial understanding and specialist HR expertise. HRM covers the full range of how organisations attract, develop, retain, and manage their workforce, from recruitment and training to employee wellbeing, performance management, and employment law compliance. Combined with broader business management knowledge, it prepares graduates who can see HR not as an administrative function but as a strategic driver of organisational success. The part-time Business Management (Human Resource Management) programme at Middlesex University, which also includes a foundation year and work placement options, equips you with a deep understanding of management principles and the ability to apply both conceptual and practical techniques in diverse business contexts. The programme fosters an appreciation for inclusive, sustainable, ethical, and entrepreneurial business practices, encouraging you to lead with integrity and a sense of social responsibility. You will develop critical thinking and analytical problem-solving skills, enabling you to tackle a wide array of business challenges with confidence. The foundation year provides additional academic preparation for students who need it, and the part-time mode makes the programme accessible to those who are working or have other commitments. Graduates move into careers in human resources, talent management, organisational development, employee relations, and management roles across the public, private, and voluntary sectors. Many pursue professional membership of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, and some go on to postgraduate study in HRM or organisational behaviour.
