MBA Concentration: Human Resource Management


The Human Resource Management concentration is a comprehensive examination of the field of human resource management. It is both a broad and a detailed look at how the Human Resource department functions within an organization, whether that organization be for profit or not, public or private, educational or governmental. This concentration prepares students to serve as Human Resource professionals and, if the student chooses, to sit for the Society of Human Resource Management’s PHR and SPHR examinations and certifications. This concentration provides learning opportunities in the fields of human resource development, international human resource and labor relations, compensation management and personnel law.


Phase I
The MBA program consists of 18–22 semester hours of foundation courses in Phase I, and 36–39 semester hours in Phases II-IV (depending upon the concentration). After reviewing the student’s transcripts at the time of admission, the MBA Advisor determines
the number of foundation courses a student must take.
