BA (Hons) (Human Resource Management) is a four-year part-time programme that explores the subjects essential to human resource management. Alongside such important topics as performance management, employee relations and leadership theories, students address the fundamentals of employment law and the management of organisational change.
The first year of the course follows the same programme as the Certificate in Public Management. In the second year of the course, students follow the Diploma in Public Management (Human Resource Management) Programme.
There are three available tuition methods: distance education, lectures at the IPA in Dublin, and lectures at selected regional Institutes of Technology and other Regional Centres (where there are sufficient students to make up a class).
Students are assessed by means of assignments given through the year and final examinations.
This degree has been specifically designed for those interested in the management of people and in the development of human resources.
If you do not wish to take all the subjects in any year, you may study one, two or three on a phased basis.
The BA (Hons) in Public Management is accredited by the National University of Ireland (NUI), of which the IPA is a recognised college. It is positioned at level 8 of the National Qualifications Framework.
