First Year in Business and Management (Two -semester) Leading to Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Human Resource Management Navitas Group - Brunel University London Pathway College, UK

A Pathway in Business is designed to develop strong foundations in design, critical thinking, and research.

In the First Year Pathway students complete the London Brunel International College (LBIC) first year of the degree, undertaking the same modules, in the same classes as students entering the University directly. Alongside the London Brunel International College (LBIC) modules, students entering through the First Year Pathway will have additional support and tuition from London Brunel International College (LBIC).

First Year

A First Year pathway is available for students who:

• Don’t meet the entry requirements to enter university level study directly (but hold equivalent to AS/A level studies)
• Feel that additional support at the start of university studies will help them stand a better chance of success
• Have been away from studies for a period of time
• Come from a different academic environment to that of the UK

If you fall into any of the above categories, choosing an undergraduate pathway at Brunel University London is the right decision. Depending on your academic needs here at London Brunel International College (LBIC) we have two pathway entry points available, foundation and first year pathway.

Progressing from First Year

At London Brunel International College (LBIC) we offer a first year or stage 2 level study. Either students will enter this pathway following completion of the foundation, or for students that have completed equivalent of A level study we also have an entry point at first year of a bachelor’s degree.

Upon completion of the first year, or Stage 2, you will seamlessly progress to the second year of your chosen degree with the University, and no longer be registered with London Brunel International College (LBIC).

Human Resource Management BSc

The Human Resource Management degree will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of current theory and practice relating to employment relations and Human Resource Management (HRM).

You will learn to combine theory and practice to perform effectively and responsibly as an HRM practitioner, understanding the purpose and key objectives of the HRM function in contemporary organisations. The course will further equip you to implement sustainable HRM strategies and practices that raise levels of employee recruitment, training, talent development, engagement, wellbeing and performance in a specific organisational context.

You will further learn of the complexities of employment regulation and the way it informs practice to ensure staff are treated ethically when they are at work, as well as how to promote equal opportunities and manage workplace diversity and inclusion. For a career in HRM you will also develop competencies in analysing key contemporary global labour market trends and their significance for workforce planning in both domestic and international organisational contexts.
