This program emphasises the human resources aspect of managing a business. It is designed for students interested in pursuing a career in people management. The curriculum focuses on developing skills related to motivating and improving employees’ professional growth. In addition to exploring the role of human resources in a company, the course emphasises the significance of this function in today’s evolving business environment, including the shift towards digital and remote work settings.
The Global Year 1 is created in partnership with Pearson. The program develops a solid foundation for overseas studies by accustoming students to the university’s academic standards. The program takes place over 8 months which means students can finish their studies faster than the traditional one year. With our student-friendly curriculum and award-winning 1-1 tutor program, students will be well on their way to their dream destination. The program also gives students an opportunity to be a part of the global workforce by completing an 8-week remote internship as well as a ‘Professional Development and Career Readiness’ course run in collaboration with Virtual Internships. The credits for the program are offered by Pearson.
After the completion of the Smart Program, students progress to the University of Sunderland to study the remaining core and elective courses on campus and complete their degrees. All students who complete the degree successfully, qualify for post-study work rights. Further information on the On-Campus program structure and courses are available with our Admissions Team.
