This major is accredited with the Australian Human Resources Institute (AHRI). The Human Resource Management Major is designed for people who seek careers in human resource management and industrial relations. Students develop skills and attributes that prepare them for career positions that require the formation and implementation of human resource management and industrial relations policies and practices in organisational contexts. The teaching philosophy is based on knowledge in action, a fusion of the Australia Human Resource Institute’s capabilities for HR professionals and the Western Sydney University Graduate Attributes designed to bring knowledge to life. Engaged learning is an underpinning principle and is attuned to the needs of business, employees and community. Graduates work in areas such as recruitment and selection, performance management, human resource development, reward, equity and diversity management, agreement negotiation, policy analysis and industrial advocacy.
