Course overview

The MSc International Business with Human Resource Management (HRM) consists of eight taught modules, Global Business in Context, International Finance, Global Marketing & Sales Development, Managing and Leading People in International Organisations, International HRM, Global Strategy Development & Implementation, International Business Research Methods, and International Entrepreneurship, and either a Dissertation or an Applied Research Project.

Successful completion of the eight taught modules will allow you to acquire mastery of both the macro and micro contexts of international business with a keener focus on a human resource management context. More specifically, you would enhance your ability to acquire, develop, and integrate international business theory whilst developing the skills to apply such theories in terms of international business practice and a greater appreciation of human resource management matters in international business.

Your final piece of work, either the Dissertation or Research Project, offers you the opportunity to investigate an area of human resource management relevant to international business. The Masters’ Dissertation option provides the opportunity to conceive, design and satisfactorily implement a substantial research project within the broad subject area of international business and HRM, whilst the Applied Research Project option enables students to apply the theoretical concepts encountered on the MSc International Business with HRM programme to an international business matter.

Response to Covid-19

Our focus is on providing a safe and welcoming learning environment for our students. We have taken every measure, in line with Government guidance, to ensure continued access to learning.

As part of our response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we plan to deliver this course combining face-to-face, on-campus learning, with online learning activities, continuing to follow Government guidance and social distancing measures as required. As restrictions ease, face-to-face opportunities will be increased as appropriate and it is safe for us to do so. Our plans are based on public health advice and robust risk assessments and will be regularly reviewed and updated in that context.

Subjects

Core Modules
Level 7 MSc Workshop - 0 credits

This module aims to review and enhance participants’ existing academic writing skills in contexts relevant to the modules it complements.

It will also introduce skills and frameworks specific to postgraduate study, with weekly opportunities for participants to transfer these elements to their own assignments and to obtain feedback on their progression.

As it provides the skills required to succeed in all written assignments, this module is compulsory

Global Business in Context - 15 credits

Businesses now operate in a globalised, highly connected multi-layered business environment, where global, regional and local firms are increasingly intertwined.

Such an environment presents many challenges and is typified by volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. As the leaders/managers and decision-makers of the future, this module will help students understand key concepts and current trends in Global Business, prepare for work in multi-layered environments, and to understand the need for flexibility and adaptability, both in the domestic and regional and global contexts.

International Finance - 15 credits

Students will be provided with an introduction to financial theory and techniques for entrepreneurship and managerial decision-making within an international business context. Students will acquire skills for planning, control and funding throughout the business cycle.

Global Marketing & Sales Development - 15 credits

Given the need for export-led growth and the expanding global markets, coupled with shrinking and saturated local/regional markets, this module focuses on developing the student’s knowledge, skills and expertise in relation to the international marketing effort, through the lens of both SMEs and MNEs.

The module attempts to better understand the complexities of marketing internationally across borders which is critical to inform decisions and choices to inform market development and growth through global sales development.

The module provides a contemporary understanding of the importance and role of international marketing to support the growth, development and success of indigenous and international organisations in a global arena.

Managing and Leading People in International Organisations - 15 credits

This module aims to provide students with knowledge and understanding of organisations, the behaviour which occurs within them and core areas of human resource management.

This knowledge and understanding would be essential for effective and efficient management, leading and development of people, which in turn aids the development of sustainable competitive advantage for an organisation.

International HRM - 15 credits

The module explores issues relating to multinational companies in their approach to people management, such as comparative employee relations, compensation, performance management and managing diversity.
