Human Resource Management 

The inclusion of this major stems from a belief that every manager is essentially a human resources manager. Managerial posts require the manager to interact with and supervise people. Consequently, it is important for modern business executives to understand that business decisions have human implications and that it is the human aspect of business issues which consistently require the greatest managerial attention. It is an increasingly held view that good human relations is the key to addressing central business issues. It is essential that the Hong Kong business community is provided with graduates in business who are committed to the effective management of human resources in organizations and who are capable of making the decisions necessary to bring this about.
