This course enables you to focus on management processes, with a strong emphasis on issues relating to the people dimensions of organisations, individuals and employment. It is frequently said that an organisation’s most important assets are its people, so an awareness of how people react to each other, and to the organisation, is fundamental to how an organisation operates. Our course is approved by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD). As part of our commitment to your professional development we will register you as a student member of the CIPD and pay your membership fees from the start of year two through to graduation. Upon successful completion of the course you will gain Associate Membership of the CIPD (AssocCIPD). Additionally, this degree is also accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) providing our students with a dual-award status. This course can be studied over three years full-time or four years with a placement, and offers all students the opportunity to gain some industry experience or travel overseas to study abroad in one of our partner universities with our unique opportunities scheme.
