Maureen Morgan, a senior lecturer at the university’s business school, said: “The new MA in HRM Business Partnership is building a collaborative approach in which every party benefits.
“The student works with their manager to add value to the organisation. The organisation develops an individual who is committed to partnering, collaborative knowledge-sharing and relationship-building and also gains a supportive partnership relationship with the university.”
