Advanced Graduate Certificate
Program in
Human Resource Management (HRM)
The Advanced Graduate Certificate in Human Resource Management program was designed to provide HR practitioners with the necessary knowledge to make
informed decisions in management and policy. The program is offered in collaboration with the University's College of Business and articulates with its Master
of Business Administration (MBA) program. Eighteen of the 21
credits may also be used to fulfill requirements in either the Master of Science in Human Resource Management or Master of Arts in Liberal Studies program offered through the School of Professional Development. (Be advised that not all courses count for both programs. Students should compare the degree and certificate requirements prior to enrolling.)
Flexible Scheduling
To meet the demands of working professionals, courses are scheduled on-campus during the evening or online. Students may choose to combine face-to-face and online courses in our traditional program, or they may apply to the HRM Online program and take all of their courses via the Internet.
