The fundamental aim of Human Resources Management (HRM) is to utilize the power of employees effectively and efficiently while also meeting their needs. In an increasingly globalized world with narrowing boundaries, the constantly evolving requirements of organizations most profoundly affect and transform the field of human resources management. Along with changing corporate structures and the growing intensity of the “war for talent,” the recognition of human capital as the most valuable asset of organizations has positioned HR departments more strategically than ever before.
Today and in the future, the success of businesses largely depends on the investments they make in human resources and their ability to design working conditions that meet employee expectations. Organizations that fail to create a motivational environment encouraging employees to willingly and enthusiastically adhere to workplace norms find it difficult to achieve their long-term goals. Therefore, the planning, implementation, and evaluation activities of human resources management have become fundamental and indispensable components of corporate sustainability and long-term success.
In this context, the Master’s Program in Human Resources Management aims to equip HR professionals with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage human capital. The program not only conveys current methods and approaches but also integrates systematic models, theoretical frameworks, and contemporary practices to enable students to develop innovative solutions to HR-related challenges. In doing so, it provides both candidates trained in business administration and professionals from other disciplines with the competence to specialize in human resources management and contribute to the advancement of organizational structures.
Human resources management in Turkey and across the world is currently undergoing a significant transformation. Consequently, there is a growing demand for professionals who can follow current developments in the HR field, apply them effectively in practice, and design strategies that address future needs. The content of the program is structured to provide students with a strong theoretical foundation as well as the analytical and practical competencies required to identify and respond to emerging demands in human resources management.
