The MSc Human Resource Management is delivered online by the University of Salford in exclusive partnership with Robert Kennedy College. Its ideas and approaches can be applied across industries and internationally, giving you room to pursue your ambitions wherever they lead.

Earn a British Degree with International Recognition

Graduate with a British degree awarded by the University of Salford. It is a credential you can take into conversations with employers and professional networks around the world.

Whether you hope to advance within your organisation or explore opportunities beyond the UAE, the programme can help you develop a deeper understanding of how people and organisations succeed.

Complete Your Studies 100% Online in as Little as One Year

There is no need to relocate or put your career on hold. The programme can be completed entirely online in as little as one year, allowing you to work toward a master’s degree while continuing your life in Sharjah.

That flexibility makes a significant goal feel more achievable. You can invest in your professional development now and begin applying what you learn as your studies progress.

Study Without Fixed Online Attendance Times

You do not need to be online at specific times and dates for classes. Instead, you can engage with your studies at hours that fit around work, family and other commitments.

This freedom lets you make productive use of your own schedule, whether that means studying early in the morning, after work or on weekends. You can plan around coursework deadlines without arranging your life around fixed live sessions.

Take Your Learning Wherever You Go

Study from Sharjah or anywhere else your work and travels take you. Your learning does not have to stop when you leave your desk or cross a border.

Through the mobile app, you can download study materials and watch lectures offline. A journey or time away from home can become an opportunity to keep moving toward your degree.

Show What You Know Through Open-Book Assessments

Instead of classical question-and-answer exams, the programme uses open-book assessments. You can draw on your learning and available resources as you develop your responses.

This approach gives you the opportunity to engage thoughtfully with ideas, examine different perspectives and demonstrate how you apply knowledge—valuable habits for anyone working with complex people and organisational challenges.

Learn from Faculty with Outstanding Academic Backgrounds

Learn with tutors and faculty whose academic backgrounds include world-renowned institutions such as Oxford, Harvard, EPFL, the University of Basel and Washington University in St. Louis.

Their varied educational experiences can bring fresh perspectives to your studies, encouraging you to question assumptions and approach human resource management with curiosity and confidence.

Join a Truly International Learning Community

Study alongside a diverse student base representing more than 130 countries. Discussions with peers from different cultures and professional backgrounds can broaden your understanding of how organisations work across borders.

Alumni work for international organisations including DHL, Dell, Disney, Orange, Bosch, CK-HUTCHISON, BASF, Nestle, Unilever, Daimler, Raffles World Academy, the United Nations, Google, ICRC, The World Bank, Microsoft, Intel, Samsung, Tencent, Siemens and Sony.

Plan Your Payments with Interest-Free Instalments

Investing in a master’s degree is an important decision. Programme fees can be paid in up to 18 monthly interest-free instalments, helping you spread the cost over time.

With a clearer payment schedule, you can plan your studies alongside your other commitments and focus on the opportunities your qualification may help you pursue.

Connect Your Ambitions to Opportunities in Sharjah

Sharjah’s manufacturing and logistics sectors bring together teams with different skills, responsibilities and backgrounds. For graduates working in these environments, a stronger grounding in recruitment, development and organisational change can support the work of building capable teams and helping them adapt as businesses evolve.

The emirate is also home to a substantial education sector, alongside growing healthcare services. In people-focused organisations, HR knowledge can help graduates think more strategically about attracting talent, developing staff and creating working environments where employees can contribute at their best.

Sharjah’s creative industries and entrepreneurial activity offer further possibilities for those interested in how organisations grow. Whether you aim to support an established employer or help a new venture develop its team, the programme can give you internationally applicable ideas to bring to the opportunities around you.
