Preparing us for the workplace

Working as a marketing assistant in an international company triggered my interest in human resources. I realised the importance and complexity of managing human resources in an organisation. I was attracted to the University of Bath and the School of Management by their reputation for education and research excellence.

I also valued the various business activities offered by the School, which ensure we are well-prepared for the workplace. Studying human resource management will improve my commercial awareness, my teamworking and my communication skills.

Every module is highly applicable to the business word

I really enjoy studying the MSc in Human Resource Management and Consulting. The course is well-structured, and every module is highly applicable to the business world. You can always link theories to real business cases. Lecturers are engaging and bring lots of fun to lectures. In seminars, they explain theories further and answer our questions.

Working with peers from various cultural and educational backgrounds has been an incredible experience. You can always gain different perspectives and be inspired by the people around you.

The course has given me significant knowledge about the HR field. My experience in group discussions and teamwork has trained me to communicate confidently and to deal with stressful situations. My multitasking and time management skills have also improved through project work. Both the technical and soft skills I’m developing will equip me well for my future career.

The most beautiful city in the UK

Bath is the most beautiful city in the UK. Both the city centre and campus are well equipped. On campus I enjoy swimming in our Olympic-standard swimming pool. In the city, I enjoy a wide range of cultural and natural attractions. The Roman Baths, Bath Abbey and Royal Crescent are perfect places to visit and de-stress.
