Online Human Resource Management Degree :: Accredited Universities

CSU's Bachelor of Business (Human Resource Management) course allows students to develop a broad understanding and appreciation of the human resource function and the skills and knowledge required to manage an organisation's people to deliver on strategic goals.

The innovative structure and flexibility of the course offers an optimum blend of theory and practice, and effectively prepares students for careers in both the private and public sectors.

The structure of the course is designed to be flexible and yet incorporates a holistic approach that integrates and aligns various specialisations. It features a broad range of subjects that will equip students with both soft skills for working with people and the ability to design and implement strategies and policies that contribute towards organisational performance.

Beginning with subjects that provide the groundwork for an appreciation of all managerial functions within an organisation, the human resource function will be examined in detail before studying advanced subjects that offer a more strategic perspective to help shape an organisation or business through staff planning, job analysis and design, appraisal of staff performance and assessment of training needs. These will be complemented by other subjects that relate to the human resource function such as industrial relations, and legal and ethical issues in employment.
