at Massey University - Auckland Campus New Zealand

Gain the human resource management knowledge and strategic skills to help elevate your career and maximise the potential of people within your organisation.

Massey University’s Master of Management (Human Resource Management) gives you an international perspective on human resource management. You will learn how to become a human resources expert with an in-depth knowledge of the theory of HR. You'll also learn the strategic skills to apply that knowledge to different types of industries and organisations.

This degree is most useful if you come from a discipline outside of HRM and have found yourself working at a level where you need human resource management skills. Or if you have an undergraduate human resources qualification and want to gain more in-depth knowledge.

We teach you how to be a practitioner and a strategist. You'll learn how to take the best of the theory to solve issues in varying workplace situations, including an industry case study.

You will be able to take advantage of Massey University staff research expertise in human resources and related areas.

Physiology is a rapidly advancing and exciting subject area. Just how important is physiology? It’s the only biological science for which you can win a Nobel Prize!

It is the basis of modern medicine, connecting science and health, so we can recognise and understand problems, helping us develop new treatments for disease. You will gain a broad understanding of the functions and integration of the major organ systems of the body, progressing to more in-depth insights as your study progresses.

Become equipped with the concepts, theories, and facts you need to make sense of the world around you.

Politics is about contestations for power and how we make decisions in society – who gets what, when, and how – from the local community to the nation and internationally.

Politics is concerned with the conflict of ideas and values. It has to do with who governs. It’s also has to do with how and why decisions that affect all of us are made. That could vary from how much students should pay to study at university to whether the UN should sanction military interventions.
