Major in Workforce Development with an Emphasis in Human Resource

Online Degree

The Bachelor of Science in Workforce Development with a Human Resources emphasis focuses on preparing students for roles in HR departments and personnel management. Key areas of study include:

  • Recruitment and Staffing: Techniques for attracting, hiring, and retaining talent.
  • Employee Relations: Managing workplace relationships, conflict resolution, and employee engagement.
  • Performance Management: Strategies for evaluating and enhancing employee performance.
  • Labor Laws and Compliance: Understanding legal requirements and ensuring organizational compliance.

Course Scheduling and Enrollment

The program's coursework is sequenced over three years, with a maximum of three courses (9 credit hours) offered each fall and spring semester, and two courses (6 credit hours) available during the summer. This design is ideal for part-time students, as enrolling in nine credit hours per semester enables financial assistance while not classifying students as full-time.

This structured yet flexible approach provides a comprehensive education in Human Resources, making it a perfect choice for working professionals aiming to advance their HR careers without disrupting their current job responsibilities.
