For example, it also covers policy development, recruitment, psychology, health and safety, industrial relations, and dispute resolution. It's a field in which graduates can make a highly positive impact on an organisation and its people.

This course aims to give students the skills and knowledge integral to careers in human resource management (HRM). It is designed to develop the capabilities specified by the Australian Human Resource Institute (AHRI) in the AHRI Model of Excellence, which governs the requirements for professional accreditation and provides internationally transferable competencies and skills.

The course is highly flexible, offering a wide range of business specialisations that allow students to develop in line with their individual interests and strengths.

Experiential content is a key feature; this includes a human resources practicum and an international study tour to France that exposes students to experiences of applied human resource management in an international context.
