Human Resource Management at Oxford Brookes University builds your knowledge to excel in international people management. Our Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD)-accredited programme equips you with confidence and skill to manage and lead in challenging and ever-changing worlds of work.

Taught by research-active and professionally experienced tutors, you will learn how to unpick complex issues and critique taken-for-granted assumptions, develop alternative perspectives, and design creative pathways to resolutions. Teaching and learning is informed by academic research, hands-on, experiential learning, creative assessment design, organisational visits, and guest-speaker lectures.

Modules

This module introduces contemporary themes associated with critical management and organisation theory, with the objective of creating an in-depth and critical understanding of some of the challenges posed in work and organisations today. Such challenges include work intensification, increasing inequalities, algorithms, managing ethically, changing patterns of work such as the gig economy, crises and the employment relationship, digital transformations, and alternative organisational forms. The module draws on the multiple and often competing perspectives on the study of organisations (e.g. capitalist political economy, diverse economies and post-capitalist work organisation) to explore current debates and reflect on the latest developments and what they mean for HR practitioners and future HRM practice.
