Bachelor of Business Administration in Human Resource Management

The Bachelor of Business Administration in Human Resource Management at Valley View University provides a solid grounding in managing people within organisations. Offered through the Centre for Adult and Continuing Education, this programme is suitable for those looking to enter the HR field or advance in their current career. It prepares you for roles that focus on recruiting, developing, and supporting an organisation's workforce.

What you learn in an HRM degree

Programmes of this kind usually cover the fundamentals of human resource management, including recruitment and selection, training and development, performance management, compensation and benefits, and employee relations. You also build practical skills in communication, negotiation, problem-solving, and an understanding of labour law and workplace ethics. The aim is to equip you to handle the people side of business, which every organisation needs.

Where a career in HR can take you

Most graduates start in roles such as HR officer, recruitment consultant, or training coordinator, where they support day-to-day people operations. With experience, many move into HR management or specialise in areas like organisational development, compensation, or talent acquisition. Because every industry requires workforce management, HR skills are transferable across sectors, from finance to healthcare to manufacturing.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry into this programme is less competitive than for many other degrees in business and management. That means your chances of admission are relatively good if your grades meet the general requirements for university entry in Ghana. The same field is also less competitive at All Nations University and the University of Education, Winneba, so it is a realistic option for many students.
