Overview

Through this Human Resource Management (Psychology) program from Deakin University as a graduate you will have a significant advantage when performing key functions in your human resources (HR) role, from recruitment and workplace negotiations, to creating high-performance environments.

Gain a more targeted knowledge base in psychology and take a scientific approach to the day-to-day functions of a HR professional. Your deep understanding of human behaviour will be crucial when it comes to analysing employee performance, developing strong organisational culture and selecting the right person for the job.

This course has been recognised by key accreditation bodies in HR and psychology as a degree that closely reflects the needs of the industry. This is largely due to our practical learning opportunities, including industry placements and overseas study tours.

Career opportunities:

The specialist course will provide a highly unique skillset for students interested in understanding how internal psychological states and external work environment factors affect employee productivity in a variety of organisational contexts. As such graduates will be highly sought after for their capacity to scientifically identify opportunities for organisational growth relating to personnel in a range of industries.

Students will have a competitive advantage in applications for HR graduate opportunities over other graduates of typical business/HR degrees through their capacity to quantify and explain ‘why’ and ‘by how much’ changes in human resources will positively impact on a range of business outputs
