Human Resource Management (HRM) is the function within an organization that focuses on recruitment of, management of, and providing direction for the people who work in the organization. HRM can also be performed by line managers.

Human resource planning and management has become a pivotal point for all organizations in recent times. The rationale for this program is therefore to equip students with the knowledge, skills and abilities to function as human resource officers and develop professional career in Human Resource Management. It is also to train and develop human capital capable of dealing with issues in the disciplinary areas of economics (accounting and finance). It would also help develop students’ research, critical thinking, analytical and writing skills.

Graduates of this option will at the end have competencies in conflict management, human resource planning and management, good governance and training needs identification.

HRM is the organizational function that deals with issues related to people such as compensation, hiring, performance management, organization development, safety, wellness, benefits, employee motivation, communication, administration, and training.

HRM is also a strategic and comprehensive approach to managing people and the workplace culture and environment. Effective HRM enables employees to contribute effectively and productively to the overall company direction and the accomplishment of the organization’s goals and objectives.

HRM is moving away from traditional personnel, administration, and transactional roles, which are increasingly outsourced. HRM is now expected to add value to the strategic utilization of employees and that employee programs impact the business in measurable ways. The new role of HRM involves strategic direction and HRM metrics and measurements to demonstrate value.
