About Postgraduate Human Resources Management

Human resources management is a popular professional field that plays a part in organisations and businesses around the world. It deals with the recruitment, deployment and management of personnel in an organisation, supporting its vital function.

A postgraduate qualification is useful if you already have an unrelated degree and want to change careers or you’re looking to enhance your career by specialising in a specific area such as equality and diversity or international employment law.

There are over 280 postgraduate programmes in postgraduate human resources management to explore across more than 100 UK universities. You can choose from PGCert and PGDip to MSc, MA, or LLM.

What to expect

Entry requirements will vary depending on the course you’re interested in, but you’ll generally need an undergraduate degree and some evidence of your interest in the subject.

Typical modules covered on a postgraduate level course might include: the role of the HR professional, human resource management in context, evidence-based approaches to people management, employment relations and employee engagement and ways to support learning and development in the workplace.

Potential careers are varied, with the public sector, voluntary sector and private enterprises of all shapes and sizes needing talented human resources staff. Think about a particular industry that interests you and the pros and cons of working for a large or small organisation as a HR professional.
