MSc Business with HR Management
Course overview
The MSc Business with HR Management at Robert Gordon University is designed for individuals who want to develop their managerial capabilities in key functional business areas and enhance their skills in people management. It will provide students with theories, tools and techniques to support practical business management.
Students will develop an understanding of how and why business operates, analyse the impact of the business environment on the management of human resources, and integrate masters level knowledge and skills by independently working on a research-focused project from a degree-related discipline. Personal and professional skills such as research, communication and presentation skills will be developed.

It also allows students to choose a two-year study option with a 12-month work placement.
