IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT – ACADEMIC YEAR 2021/22
This master program is planned to be taught On- Campus, in the academic year 2021/22.
In the event that capacity limitations persist in the classrooms at the beginning of the course due to risks derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, students must follow the sessions that are determined synchronously online. The master program will set the most appropriate shift system, always ensuring the maximum presence of all its students.
It is recommended to have a portable computer equipment for the follow-up of those training activities that are determined. This equipment is essential for carrying out practices in virtual environments in university classrooms that do not have computer stations.
International students who prove difficulties or delays in obtaining their visas and entering Spain, may request remote teaching until they may join the classes on-campus.The Master’s in Human Resources Management aims to provide university graduates with the knowledge and skills required for a successful career in HR management.
The Master’s programme is taught by a highly proficient faculty of both academics and practitioners. The values of rigour, applicability and personal respect underpin the programme’s content and structure.
The programme provides a gateway to a variety of career opportunities in consulting firms and corporate HR departments in public, private, national, international, and non-profit organizations. Graduates are regularly employed by top-tier companies such as Airbus, Amadeus, Banco Santander, BBVA, Baker & McKenzie, Boston Consulting Group, Coca Cola, Deloitte, EY, Indra, INECO, Management Solutions, Manpower Group, Repsol, and Vodafone.
Besides studying the Master entirely at the UC3M in Madrid, students may also study the second semester either at the Institut de Gestion Sociale (IGS) in Paris (Madrid-Paris track) or at the London South Bank University (LSBU) (Madrid-London track), receiving two Master’s diplomas, one from each institution.
