Master of Arts in Human Resource Management – Schweizer Institut für Hochschulbildung in Management und Innovation (2024)

Human Resource Management is a field present in all businesses, especially businesses with many employees or multinational corporations.

Human Resource professionals or managers are not just people who do administrative jobs related to human resource but become strategic assistants in recruiting, training, developing, and retaining the right human resources to accompany the organization’s goals.

Besides in-depth knowledge of the Human Resource Management industry, Human Resource professionals also need to understand the organizational operations, dialectical thinking, and leadership capabilities to have the same perspective and common voice with the board of directors.
