Human Resources Management
MBA
The Human Resources Management MBA from Ellis College is designed to provide
you with advanced skills and professional confidence in managing an organization's
human resources.
Attracting the most qualified employees and matching them to the jobs for which
they are best suited is important for the success of any organization. However,
many enterprises are too large to permit close contact between top management
and employees. Human resources, training, and labor relations managers and
specialists provide this link. In the past, these workers have been associated
with performing the administrative function of an organization, such as handling
employee benefits questions or recruiting, interviewing, and hiring new personnel
in accordance with policies and requirements that have been established in
conjunction with top management. Today's human resources workers juggle these
tasks and, increasingly, consult top executives regarding strategic planning.
They have moved from behind-the-scenes staff work to leading the company in
suggesting and changing policies. Senior management is recognizing the importance
of the human resources department to their financial success.
In addition to the core courses listed under the General Business MBA
, you are required to take three electives from the following:
