BA (hons) Business And Human Resource Management in Manchester Metropolitan University

Overview

The world of business is always evolving – adapting to new technology, moving with geopolitical events and reacting to the shifting financial climate. But there is one constant: people. Growth, change, success – it’s only possible with a well-managed workforce, no matter what the industry or sector.

You’ll study a valuable blend of topics to give you a solid grounding for your future. On one hand, you’ll get an insider’s perspective on business operations, from strategic planning and accounting techniques to sustainable development and digital technologies. On the other, you’ll delve into the principles of managing, leading and developing people, looking at areas like employer relations and organisational behaviour, as well as workplace psychology and cross-cultural management.

Manchester offers the perfect setting for it all. It’s home to world-leading businesses, as well as thriving hub for innovators, entrepreneurs and start-ups. And Manchester Met is at the heart of it all. We’ve built an impressive network with industry experts and major employers – sharing understanding and opportunity. For us, it means keeping our expertise at the cutting edge of business and HRM. For you, it means learning from worldclass academics and leading professionals from organisations like PwC and AJ Bell. Plus, if you opt for a third-year placement, it’s a network that can open doors to the sort of employers where you can turn classroom theory into workplace practice.

By focusing on the human element of effective business leadership, this is a programme that offers vital transferrable skills, providing the first steps of a range of career paths. You’ll leave us equipped to pursue roles across a vast range of sectors in a wide variety of roles – following in the footsteps of other graduates now working with the likes of JCB or Kellogg’s.
