Core modules
WBS teaching was interactive with interesting lectures and external guest speakers.
Shaun Mannathukkaren, MA Industrial Relations & Personnel Management 2008
You will start your course with an Introductory module with two elements. An induction week, which introduces you to the style of the course, is followed by a short foundation programme covering understanding and researching employment. This will introduce you to key concepts and features of industrial relations and current controversies in the regulation of employment.
There are then three core modules:
• International Context of Employment Relations
• Managing Human Resources
• Researching Industrial Relations & the Management of Human Resources.
Your choice of one of the following two modules will complete your core modules:
• Employment Relations in Britain (compulsory if you are taking the CIPD professional qualification)
• Comparative Employment Relations.
The taught modules are complemented by our General & Practitioner seminars. These non-assessed events develop your general skills and competencies, and broaden your exposure to contemporary issues and practice.
