About Human Resource Management With Languages BA (hons) in De Montfort University

This course equips you for a career as a manager, capable of reflecting critically on your own practice and that of an organisation. You will study issues including the impact of HRM practices on firms’ performance, managing change, business law, employment relations, organisational culture, motivation and leadership.

It combines HRM with the study, from beginners’ or post-GCSE or A-level, of a foreign language. At a time when the graduate employment market is very competitive, having a recognised competence in a foreign language can set you apart from most other graduates and thus enhance your career prospects.

Competence in another language has become an essential skill for success in the global job market. By combining your study of Human Resource Management with a language, you will develop not only competence in the language itself, but will also enhance your employability; a language distinguishes you from other graduates.

Did you know that French is an official language in 32 countries, with a projected growth to 750 million people worldwide by 2050; Mandarin Chinese is currently the language with the greatest number of speakers; and Spanish has over 470 million speakers worldwide including in Central and South American countries and the USA? You can start your study of languages at DMU (French, Mandarin or Spanish) at beginner, GCSE (intermediate) or Advanced level.
