Module description

During the MSc Human Resource Management programme students will embark on researching and writing a substantial dissertation. This is an important opportunity to develop an area of expertise within the HR field by carrying out and writing up their own research project. The dissertation module will comprise elements of instruction in relation to research methods and data collection techniques.? It is our intent to build their research skills so that they are well positioned to identify research problems with significance for Human Resource Management practice and conduct independent research, presenting their findings in a clear and compelling manner. Our aims in this module are threefold.? Our first aim is to help students to identify research problems which have relevance to Human Resource Management practice within organisations.? Our second aim, connected with this, is to build their skills and confidence in collecting and analysing relevant data related to their selected research problem.? Finally, we seek to develop their ability to derive clear conclusions and recommendations from their data together with an ability to present these to both an academic and practitioner audience. Students will be offered the opportunity to join an introductory online session at the start and then to engage in one-to-one support, as needed.?
