Human Resource Management Concentration

Recent research on the value of human resource management suggests that the human resource function can be a significant source of competitive advantage for organizations that use evidence-based practices. Because the strategic value of the human resource function is often ignored in undergraduate business programs, the TTU MBA Program offers an ideal place to offer such instruction. The Human Resource Management Concentration offers education on the strategic importance of competent human resource management and the opportunity for students to complete professional certification exams.

To earn a concentration in Human Resource Management, students must successfully complete three courses:
