Hi Fanni, I came across your profile and thought it would be best to reach out to you. I'm wanting to pursue my MSc in HRM from the UK and the University of Birmingham is one of my options. Do you mind telling me how you found the course and what are the opportunities like in the UK in terms of international students? Thanks!
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out!
I found the course very relevant to the actual HR field in the job marker mainly because if you choose the CIPD pathway it will give you hands on experience as you’ll learn from professionals from the industry. This means that you’ll need to solve real life HR problems based in the UK. The CIPD pathway is strongly related to the UK and its labour law. Consequently, if your plan is to secure a job in the UK on the long term, then I would definitely recommend to choose this course. You’ll also have the chance to go for the normal MSC in Human Resources course which won’t be that country specific as the CIPD pathway. In that case I would recommend to check the following link to see which modules the course will incorporate.https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/postgraduate/courses/taught/business/human-resource-management.aspx
I hope this helps!
