wir090 - Human Resource Management (Complete module description)

keine

Through a combination of lectures and interactive learning, students acquire a solid understanding of the key challenges and areas of practice in Human Resource Management.

• They are able to analyse, interpret, and evaluate HR-related problem areas against the backdrop of heterogeneous actors and contextual conditions.
• They can critically assess HRM instruments and methods and judge their application in practice in a situation-appropriate manner.
• They develop the ability to link theoretical foundations with practical approaches and to argue these positions in discussions and case analyses.
• They strengthen their capacity for self-reflection with regard to HR-related issues and learn to articulate their own perspectives in academic discourse.
• They can position specific questions within the broader scientific HRM debate and are able to reflect upon and evaluate them.

Within the interactive components of the module, students apply the knowledge gained in lectures. Through group work, discussions, and case studies, they learn how to deal constructively with different viewpoints and to jointly develop courses of action. Optional tutorials provide additional opportunities to sharpen their own positions and to deepen the connection between theory and practice.

In doing so, students are enabled to identify HRM problems, critically analyse them, and develop viable solutions – a key preparation for meeting the complex demands of professional practice.

Students develop theoretical as well as practical insights into the backgrounds and specific characteristics of “Human Resource” Management, in particular the following: - origins and theoretical basis - development and framework requirements - workforce planning - recruitment and selection - work organisation - working time organisation - leadership - performance reviews - training and development - compensation - staff reduction
