040502 VK Organization and Human Resources (2007W)

The VK 'Organization and Human Resources' deepens the contents of the accordant EK, which is also the prerequisite for attending the course. We apply organizational theories on case studies. These case studies deal with different alternatives in coordinating economic ac-tivities (hierarchy, network, and market). Special focus is put on the organizational structure and organizational processes. Additionally, we discuss the main topics in human resource management. In any possible organizational structure, the effective use of human resources is critical to the success of the organization. The VK focuses on the areas of recruiting and hu-man resource development.
