UNIRAZAK Master of Business Administration majoring in Human Resources (MBAHR@UNIRAZAK) is a long distance and blended learning programme.
 
Many MBA students choose to focus on a sharply defined niche within the study of business administration, and MBA majoring in Human Resources is increasingly becoming one of the more sought-after offshoots. The relationship between employees, employers, managers and the workspace is at the core of the study of human resources. Students take courses like organizational behavior and strategic management and are trained to serve as advocates for employees as well as to participate in the recruiting and interviewing process of new hires.
 
As long as there are employers and employees, there will be a robust job market for human resource professionals. Graduates of an MBA majoring in Human Resources program typically are viable candidates for jobs like HR consultant, human resources manager, international human resources professional, nonprofit human resources expert, employee education consultant, training and development manager, executive recruiter and human resources IT specialist.

Your study plan would include thirteen (13) core business and management modules as well as additional modules to help you improve a specific skill or knowledge.
