Human Resources Studies

Studies in the field of human resources open up exciting career opportunities in an increasingly complex working world. The demand for specialists with expertise in the recruitment, development and retention of talent is continuously growing. A degree in Human Resources provides comprehensive knowledge in areas such as Human Resource Management, Labor Law and Organizational Development, thus forming the basis for a career in the Human Resources (HR) field. In this article, you will learn about the content of the program, the skills developed and the career prospects for graduates.

DID YOU KNOW?

In 2024, Munich Business School secured the top spot among private universities of applied sciences in the field of business administration from a recruitment perspective for the fifth time in a row.

What is Human Resources?

Human resources, also known as human resources (HR), includes all activities related to the management and development of employees in a company. It is not just about managing labor, but also about making the best possible contribution to achieving corporate goals and promoting a positive work culture. Human resources plays a crucial role in attracting, promoting and retaining talent that is essential to the company's success.

The central tasks of human resources can be divided into several main areas:

  1. Recruitment: This involves identifying and hiring qualified employees who meet the company's requirements. The recruiting process includes job postings, candidate selection and interviews.
  2. Personnel development: This area focuses on the training and further development of employees. Training, continuing education and coaching help employees to expand their skills and knowledge and to develop within the company.
  3. Personnel administration: This includes administrative aspects such as managing employment contracts, payroll, working hours and vacation days.
  4. Employment law and compliance: Here, HR ensures that all labor laws and legal requirements are adhered to. This protects both the company and its employees from legal problems.
  5. Employee retention and corporate culture: Promoting a positive working atmosphere and a strong corporate culture is also part of human resources. This includes measures for employee satisfaction, work-life balance and the creation of a supportive, productive environment.

Human resources is thus much more than just administrative work – it is a strategic, people-oriented function that contributes significantly to the success and growth of a company.

Human Resources Studies Requirements

To be successful in the field of human resources and to complete a corresponding course of study, there are some important prerequisites that include both professional and personal skills:

Personal Skills

  • Communication skills: HR requires strong communication skills, as HR professionals interact with employees and managers on a daily basis.
  • Empathy and knowledge of human nature: A good sense of people and the ability to put yourself in their shoes are important when dealing with personnel matters.
  • Organizational skills: HR professionals often juggle multiple tasks at the same time – from personnel planning to organizing training.
  • Discretion and responsibility: HR staff often have access to confidential employee information. A high level of integrity and responsibility is therefore essential.
  • Problem-solving skills: HR professionals face a range of challenges, such as conflicts or change processes, and should be able to find creative and constructive solutions.

With these skills, prospective HR managers create a solid basis for mastering the diverse and often demanding tasks in human resources and contributing to the success of the company.

Why study human resources?

Studying in the field of human resources offers numerous advantages and perspectives for people who enjoy working with others and are interested in the dynamics of the labor market. Here are some compelling reasons why studying in this field is attractive:

  1. Diverse career opportunities: Human resources is a core area in companies and organizations of all sizes and industries. Graduates can work in various roles, such as recruiting, personnel development, labor law or change management.
  2. High demand for skilled workers: The need for qualified HR professionals is growing as companies increasingly recognize the importance of a well-organized and motivated team for success. Human resources departments play a central role in shaping corporate culture and employee retention.
  3. Working with people: If you enjoy working with people, you can apply your social skills and communication skills in human resources. HR professionals are often the first point of contact for employees when it comes to professional development or personal matters.
  4. Varied tasks: Human resources work is multifaceted – from developing recruitment strategies and planning training measures to supporting change processes. Each task requires different skills and brings variety to the workday.
  5. Influence on corporate culture: In human resources, you work directly at the interface between management and employees. This means that HR professionals have a direct influence on corporate culture and the working atmosphere.

Study Human Resources or Business Studies with a focus on Human Resources?

A Business Studies degree with a focus on Human Resources offers a broader and more versatile basis than a pure Human Resources degree and often opens more doors for you in your professional life. By studying general Business Administration, you will acquire comprehensive knowledge in finance, marketing, accounting and corporate management, which will give you a deeper understanding of the economic interrelationships in a company. This knowledge is particularly valuable in human resources because you can better assess the strategic importance of HR and contribute to the company's value creation in a targeted way. 
A comprehensive understanding of business administration also helps you to view HR topics in the context of the company as a whole and to network with other departments, such as finance or sales. In addition, a Business Studies degree broadens your career opportunities because you are not limited to HR positions. You could switch to areas such as business consulting, project management or strategic corporate management. A Business Studies degree with a focus on human resources combines the best of both worlds: specialized HR skills and a broad business management foundation that makes you employable in a variety of ways in the company.

International Setting and wide range of Courses ★★★★

"In the first three semesters in particular, there are a lot of soft skills courses or courses where you can learn new things alongside the normal Business Studies courses. For example, you have subjects like Current Topics in Business, where you discuss current economic issues. You get a lot of input and can take something away from every course. In addition, there are often seminars or evening events where speakers from large companies are invited to address often very interesting topics and where you have a good opportunity to network. Both with the speakers and with other students."
