Leading and Managing Human Capital Concentration

This concentration represents a blend of organizational behavior courses with human resource management courses. Depending on course selection, the student could be prepared to enter workplace in occupations associated with human resource management in medium to large companies or consulting for established companies that specialize in managing change, organizational transformation, and talent management. The historic background of this emerging field is rooted in traditional administrative functions associated with managing employees, but has expanded scope and impact through the integration of Strategic Human Resource Management and Organizational Change.

After completing MGT 3101 (Organizational Behavior), students complete six advanced courses (four from the first list and two from the second list). Students must earn a grade of "C" or higher in all courses used toward a concentration.
