3 Years On Campus Bachelors Program
This course blends core business skills—like finance, marketing, operations—with a deep dive into human resources: how organisations hire, develop, and manage people. It’s ideal if you enjoy understanding what makes workplaces tick, want to lead teams, or aim for an HR or people-management role in business.
Curriculum Structure
Here’s roughly how your learning unfolds year by year, and some of the modules you’ll study:
Year 1
You’ll start by building your foundation: understanding how businesses work in a global setting, learning about financial accounting and management, and getting introduced to digital tools. For example, modules like Management in the Global Environment, Financial Performance Management, and Data and Digital Technologies help you get comfortable with analysing business environments, interpreting financial data, and using digital systems.
Year 2
In the second year the learning becomes more HR-focused while still building broader management skills. You’ll study modules such as Resourcing and Talent Management, Operations & Supply Chain Management, Innovation, Entrepreneurship & Sustainability, and Management Analytics & Visualisation. These teach you how to manage recruitment & rewards, design operations, use data for decision-making, and think about sustainability in business practice.
Year 3
This is where you bring everything together: strategy, leadership, and specialist HR topics. Compulsory modules include Business Strategy, Global Human Resource Management, and Organisational Psychology & Leadership. You’ll also complete a substantial work placement (90 credits) plus an associated portfolio (30 credits), which gives you real, hands-on experience in HR settings.
