This MBA has a particular focus on Human Resource Management, giving a fast track towards senior roles in HRM as well as roles in general management. The course aims to accelerate your promotion to well-paid positions of leadership. 

You will develop a deep strategic understanding of the different functions within organisations. You will also learn how to re-apply the best of international management practices.

In addition to the core elements completed by all our MBA students, you will also complete a specialist module: either ‘International Human Resource Management’ or ‘Organisation Development and Change’. You will also undertake a dissertation related to HRM.

At Sunderland, we focus on problem-solving ability and linking theory to real-world challenges. As part of this, you will visit companies both in the UK and in Europe, and also learn from guest speakers who share their practical business experiences.

We understand that your MBA is part of an onward journey. We offer extensive career support to help you gain a rapid return on your investment in yourself. 

If you wish, you can choose to pursue our broad-based MBA or an MBA that has a specific reference in the award title to Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Marketing, Finance, Hospitality Management or Supply Chain Management.
