Compulsory/Core modules
Strategic Human Resource Management
This module provides learners with a critical understanding of the internal and external contexts of contemporary organisations, including the managerial, business, regulatory, labour market and institutional contexts. It further examines the role of the HR function, HR strategy and the link between HR and organisational performance. The module also introduces the major functions of HRM including resourcing, performance management, learning and development and explores the applications in professional practice in different types of organisational scenarios (large, small, global, national, public, private). This is further achieved through additional skills workshops that engage learners in the analysis of case studies, role play and problem solving exercises.
Managing Diversity
This module examines concepts of workplace equality, diversity and inclusion, and theories of occupational segregation/labour market segmentation. It explores diversity and equality across the dimensions of gender, race, disability, religion, age and sexual orientation and considers the organisational processes, which produce and reproduce inequalities of outcome among diverse social groups in workplaces and careers. The module also considers equality and diversity policy and practice at labour market and organisational levels. Different national contexts are investigated.
International Reward Management
Reward management is one of the key components of human resource management. It is one of the most sensitive and problematic areas of people management that poses additional issues when cast in an international setting. The course starts by giving students a theoretical grounding before applying this knowledge to issues such as payment systems, executive compensation, equal pay, payment structures and pay negotiations. These issues are examined from an organisational and international perspective with topical case studies and practical examples.
Dissertation for International HRM & Employment Relations
The dissertation requires a demonstration of ability to carry out an original investigation into an area of interest. The process should reflect skills of formulating research questions, synthesising and analysing data, drawing insights and conclusions, and written communication. An investigation of an issue relevant to the content of the Programme of which it forms a component will be guided through the dissertation process by a supervisor. Students are required to take the compulsory Research Methods module.
Leading Organisational Change
This module will investigate and discuss leading change in organisations from both a theoretical and practical perspective. Marrying theory and practice will allow students to critically reflect on organisational change processes through both a scientific and practical lens and to apply their knowledge directly to real world cases and practices. Understanding different perspectives, practices and challenges of leading change will also contribute to students' employability and their personal development. More specifically, how they can become both an effective and a responsible future contributor to organisational change.
Research Methods for Human Resources Management
The nature of business and management/ human resource management research and business techniques is explored to build knowledge, skills and expertise to undertake a successful MSc dissertation. Fundamentals of business management/HR research help design relevant and rigorous dissertation projects through suitable quantitative and/or qualitative research methods techniques. The entire research process from finding a research question to the results including the write-up is developed. The dissertation will also provide the fundaments for future research projects in academia and different business contexts.
Continued Professional Development and Academic Skills Workshops for MSc International Human Resource Management & Emplo
This module consists of Professional Development workshops. These workshops include a mixture of knowledge dissemination, interactive discussion, and the use of worked examples and role plays (including a number of case studies based on actual organisations) to provide students with practical insight and initial development of the necessary skills to become effective in addressing issues that arise in various areas of HR including: recruitment and selection, performance management, negotiation and bargaining, career development and talent management.
Managing Yourself and Building Positive Relationships at Work
Organisational behaviour theories and ideas from psychology provide insight on how individuals/groups behave in organisational settings. Various organisational models are analysed for future HR practitioners to enhance self-awareness and interpersonal skills. Individual differences, managing group dynamics, communicating with impact, influencing and persuasion skills, working across differences, managing workplace politics constructively, building nurturing relationship for professional growth and career progression are examined. Self-development through practical and experiential activities are embedded in weekly sessions.
People Analytics: Strategy and Practice
This module aims to provide learners with a critical understanding of principles and practices of HR analytics and the importance of evidence-based practice more broadly. The focus is on equipping students with strong analytical skills that can be applied to identify and evaluate effective data sources as well as use relevant techniques to interpret and analyse data in support of HR and organizational strategy. The knowledge and competencies gained are then applied to the analysis various aspects of people management such as workforce planning, diversity management, training and development and pay and performance management and organisational change, in different types of organisational and dynamic external settings.
Elective modules
Evidence-based Human Resource Management
This module focuses on a practical project to provide participants with a hands-on experience of using different types of evidence and information to identify real HRM problems and their potential solutions. Evidence-based practice approaches consider a broad range of sources of information and crucially develop skills around critical appraisal in order to judge the trustworthiness of information. The learner develops skills related to collecting relevant information of different types (including scientific evidence, organisational data, professional expertise and stakeholder perspectives and values).
Corporate Social Responsibility and Business Ethics
Corporate Social Responsibility will offer students an introductory and in-depth module unpacking the sensitive relationship between corporations and issues of social justice, environmental destruction (animal, climate, pollution, ecologies) and labour rights. At a time when globalisation is perceived as a threat to international business addressing inequalities across the global North and South, this module will provide postgraduate students with indispensable knowledge about key issues facing corporations today. The module will also address both philosophical issues that include ethical theories, moral debates and social scientific perspectives as well as a grounding in real life case studies and access to a local stakeholder engagement project with charities in Tower Hamlets and Poplar. Specific modules will cover a wide-range of subjects including: 'greening' management (reducing emissions, waste management, protecting biodiversity), workers rights (trade unions, ILO, outsourcing, supply-chains), sustainable consumption (ethical marketing, corporate lobbying, consumerism), and promoting democratic processes (governance, accountability, stakeholder engagement).
Resourcing and Talent Management
Resourcing and Talent Management as a subject incorporates many aspects of the HRM practice with links to organisational performance. Central to organisational success is an ability to attract and retain the right talent committed to adding value to the organisation and its stakeholders. This module focuses on these activities both from a strategic and practical perspective in a global context, namely Employee Value Proposition (EVP), employee attraction, assessment, selection, onboarding, engagement and retention. It requires students to critically evaluate and reflect on Resourcing and Talent Management theory and practice both from an ethical and professional standpoint, and introduces learners to a range of approaches and tools deployed by organisations, both in the UK and internationally, in support of their strategic choices and objectives.
All modules are subject to change.
In addition to the above modules, students will have the opportunity to engage with leading practitioners in the field of HR, through a series of interactive CIPD professional development workshops that take place throughout the year.
Assessment
Modules are assessed through a combination of coursework and written examinations, as well as individual and team projects.

"The experience I had in this course surpassed all expectations, as I connected with a diverse group of professionals, engaged with seasoned professors and delved into current and practical aspects of HR. The collaborative environment facilitated invaluable discussions and networking opportunities, while the expertise of the professors illuminated complex concepts. The course’s emphasis on up-to-date industry HR practices equipped me with skills needed to confidently address real world challenges. On reflection, this comprehensive course not only expanded my knowledge, but also provided a solid foundation for future success in the field."
