Human Resource Management Specialization Option:

Management students have the option of adding a specialization of Human Resource Management by completing the Management core requirements (the specialization includes six hours of management core courses: MGT-435 and MGT-490), satisfying the foundational business course requirements, completing an additional six hours of Human Resource courses (MGT-470 and MGT-494), and pursuing an HR oriented project in ADM-495. Upon successful completion of this specialization, students should be equipped to:

  • Fill the role of an educated and credentialed HR professional.
  • Demonstrate an alignment of knowledge and skills with Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) standards for Human Resources Professionals.
  • Complete the SHRM certification exam (per SHRM certification qualifications, i.e., work experience).

Management students wishing to complete the Human Resource Management specialization also need to complete the following foundational business course requirements in order to comply with SHRM guidelines:

  • Finance course at the 100 level or equivalent
  • Economics course at the 200 level or equivalent
  • Statistics course at the 100 level or equivalent
