Programme outline


The MSc International Human Resources & Performance Management is designed for graduates of any discipline who are interested in pursuing a career in human resources or a related area using people and transformation management skills. With a critical approach to HR management strategies and practices and a focus on employee wellbeing, innovative organisational designs, and change and transformation in global environments, this MSc will help you meet the specific needs of future HR managers. As such, the programme provides in-depth study of HR management in multicultural and international settings


In addition to the international dimension and to the people and change/transformation focussed approach, one of the highlights of the MSc is the low code/no-code approach to technology and digital transformation. We believe that HR should be at the core of digital transformations, which requires an understanding of both digital challenges and digital skills. We help our participants develop both features through a hands-on approach to HR digital transformation and artificial intelligence implementation in a joint initiative with our partners from Microsoft. We also provide participants with the opportunity to get certified in agile methods through the AgilePM certification.

  • enable organisational change to respond to new business realities and opportunities,

This MSc meets these needs and requirements by developing students’ knowledge and skills to work on organisational change management issues. Graduates know how to contribute to the development of appropriate HRM policies and strategies to promote organisational performance.
