What you will study

The MSc in Human Resource Management at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense is a two-year master's degree taught in English. It sits under the specialisation in Economics and Business Administration. The programme is about the people side of organisations: how employees are managed, and why that matters when knowledge and skills are what set a company apart.

What you study

The register description names the core areas directly. You are taught human resource management, organisation, strategy, communication and leadership. Organisational behaviour is part of the mix, and so are contemporary issues, including how to manage people in a more sustainable way.

The structure is straightforward. Mandatory courses give you the foundation in managing human resources and the surrounding topics. Elective courses let you follow your own interests within that frame. The programme is built to prepare you for a career that lasts beyond your first job, not just for the first position after graduation.
