You’ll study the foundations of employment relations and human resource management and gain the skills to design, conduct and evaluate quantitative and qualitative research. Drawing on our wide-ranging research strengths, you’ll have the chance to study topics such as diversity and inclusion, wellbeing, recruitment and selection, and people analytics. Multidisciplinary study is a key feature of learning at LSE. So, alongside your core studies, you’ll take an elective course from a related field such as political science, sociology or law. You’ll begin your studies on the master of research degree and move on to the PhD (subject to satisfactory progress). You’ll also have the chance to complete a substantial piece of work that makes an original contribution to the field. Here at LSE, we have a vibrant community of world-class academics and doctoral students who are pursuing varied research in different fields of management.
