Progress your HR career while fitting your studies around work and home commitments with our 'day release' course. Our postgraduate qualification is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) and held by HR professionals around the world.
If you're aspiring to be an effective HR practitioner - whether you're working as a manager or consultant in a generalist or specialist role - this is the must-have qualification. It will allow you to develop your understanding of organisations and the changing environment in which HR teams operate. Using critical analysis, self-reflection and problem-solving techniques, you'll learn how to develop and implement creative, strategic plans that drive organisational performance.
You'll study part-time while continuing to work, coming to Cambridge once a week and using our online learning environment at other times.
Our students register as associate members of CIPD, and enjoy exclusive access to journals, reports, time-saving resources, library services, as well as professional development guidance and networking opportunities. Once you're in work, you'll be able to upgrade to full membership. The cost of your membership and course accreditation with the CIPD is not included in the course fees. Whilst the degree is accredited, those seeking this credit for their degree should apply directly to join the CIPD and pay the appropriate joining and membership fee.
Here at Faculty of Business and Law, we have over 25 years' experience of delivering CIPD qualifications and a high achievement rate: 100% of our MA Human Resource Management graduates are in work or further study six months after graduating (DLHE, 2014). So by studying with us, we think you have the best chance of success.
Please note: if you've achieved the CIPD Professional Development Standards in the last five years, or the Advanced Diploma Standards, or the Anglia Ruskin Postgraduate Diploma in HRM on the block or part-time route, you can top-up your award to progress to the MA in Human Resource Management by undertaking two modules focusing your international and global understanding alongside a dissertation.
For immediate progression to the full-time MA in Human Resource Management programme in Cambridge, you have the option of undertaking Global HRM and a Masters dissertation at completion of your award.
