Student Destinations

This MSc can help you progress towards the higher levels of HR management, but because people are a vital component of any organisation, it can also help you excel in more general management roles. Its approval by the CIPD means it's well-regarded by employers, and its content will ensure you leave as a forward-thinking practitioner with high levels of professionalism and a thorough grasp of modern strategic practice.

After completing this course, most of our students go on to gain promotions or secure more senior roles in other organisations. Our graduates now work across the world in HR management and director positions for public, private and not-for-profit organisations, including Boots, the NHS, Rolls-Royce, Toyota and local authorities. 

Wherever your career takes you, we equip you with some key transferable skills that will be of value in any professional role. These include: leadership, teamworking, networking, communication, and the ability to present and justify intellectually rigorous arguments. We also develop your critical self-analysis and reflective practice skills, which will support lifelong learning and encourage you to continuously grow and develop throughout your career.
