Bachelor of Business Management in Human Resource Management

    Programme Background and Rationale

    The rapid growth of businesses and increasing transformations in the global economy has led not only to an increasing demand for human resource(HR) specialists, but also to an increasing demand for HR technocrats who can help organizations add value to their employees and enable them gain competitive advantage. Moreover, today HR is no longer considered a “support” department but the key to sustained advantage. This programme addresses this worldwide growing demand for graduates with managerial capability in human management and development. This bachelor of business administration in human resource management has been conceived in the light of the fact no business can succeed without effective human resource. It is therefore designed in response to the demand for strong and competent HR managers in the world market, taking into account the fact that global developments now put emphasis on competence and skills in human resource management to manage all business resources. The faculty of business and public administration of Amoud University recognizes the fact that the world rotates on business and that human resource is the engine of any business. Moreover, and in the light of civil war in the 1980s -1990s and the human capital flight that occurred, the shortage of skilled HR personnel is widespread. As the country progresses on its path of re-construction, the available local talent needs to be managed and developed in a professional manner, so that the country can benefit maximally from them. This HR programme is not only intended to fill the current HR gap, but to ensure sustained production of well-trained local pool of HR professionals to always manage and transform the HR dimension of production and contribute to the overall growth and development of the country.
