Human Resource Management Minor

Human Resource Management Minor for SBA Business Majors

Students pursuing a major in the School of Business Administration may earn a minor in human resource (HR) management by completing three 300-level or above elective courses in the field.

Business Minors for Majors Outside of SBA

Students who are majoring outside the School of Business Administration Business Programs may benefit from an opportunity to take a series of courses in business to enhance their academic programs. To provide this option, the School of Business Administration (SBA) has approved a series of structured minor programs that provide a sequence of courses that will enrich other disciplines, can be monitored by the administrative staff, and meet AACSB guidelines.

Students outside the School of Business Administration Business Programs may not take more than 24 credits in business (excluding EC 101 and EC 202, which count toward the general education requirement).

Students working toward a minor in business must take at least 15 credits from the School of Business Administration Business Programs (residency requirement).

The MHR program gives students the ability to examine contemporary challenges in human resources. It provides a comprehensive exposure to the practice of sound human resource management. The MHR program also emphasizes the importance of professional networking and the building of professional relationships to further one’s professional career and increase knowledge and skills.

Why consider a minor in HR? The combination of a major from one field and a minor in HR can be an excellent marriage between the skills and abilities developed in both programs. The minor in HR can help students apply their degree in a variety of fields.
