Our Management and Human Resources degrees offer you a wide-ranging programme where you will study management theory alongside psychology, sociology and history. Our teaching approach blends academic material with practical insights and exercises, enabling a critical understanding of the complex world of work and organisations.

On this degree you will focus on understanding people – the way they work and how their behaviour can be influenced through people management practices.

You start your degree studying the core module Management and Organisational Behaviour and take two other Part One courses. We recommend choosing Management School or Social Sciences courses, but the choice is yours.

In your second year, you’ll deepen your understanding with modules including Managing People, Business Ethics and Human Resource Management. The latter module is compulsory for this course.

In your third year you will undertake an industrial placement before returning to Lancaster for your final year where you can choose from a range of modules such as International HRM, HRM: Theory and Practice, Ethics and Sustainability and Organisational Change. The Human Resource Management courses are compulsory for students on this course.

Lancaster University offers a range of programmes, some of which follow a structured study programme, and others which offer the chance for you to devise a more flexible programme. We divide academic study into two sections - Part 1 (Year 1) and Part 2 (Year 2, 3 and sometimes 4). For most programmes Part 1 requires you to study 120 credits spread over at least three modules which, depending upon your programme, will be drawn from one, two or three different academic subjects. A higher degree of specialisation then develops in subsequent years.

Information contained on the website with respect to modules is correct at the time of publication, but changes may be necessary, for example as a result of student feedback, Professional Statutory and Regulatory Bodies' (PSRB) requirements, staff changes, and new research.
