Employees are the heart of any company and central to organizational culture and success.
Happy, hard-working employees make for a strong, successful team. But who makes sure that those employees remain consistently engaged and productive? That's where human resources (HR) professionals come into play.
Today's businesses are rapidly evolving, and having skilled HR professionals has never been more important. As companies implement remote work and focus intently on critical issues like diversity, equity, and inclusion, HR professionals are essential advisors and leaders within their organization.
Within the HR field, there are several potential areas of specialization including:
- Recruitment and Hiring
- Training and Development
- Employee-Manager Relations
- Compensation and Benefits
- Safety and Compliance
Our Career Services team can help you consider the specialized area of Human Resources that might be a good fit based on your interests and experience. And, whether your goal is to help foster an inclusive climate, attract and retain talent, measure performance for compensation, or use data analytics to inform your organization's HR strategy, you'll find that completing your degree will ultimately help you to grow your knowledge and demonstrate your commitment to a meaningful profession.
