Human Resource Management
Description
The NSU master of science in human resource management, offered through the H. Wayne Huizenga School of Business and Entrepreneurship, presents new perspectives on individual and group behavior, and provides insight into group dynamics and approaches for better management and motivation of employees. Through the curriculum, workforce issues, including organization restructuring, implementing a more effective communications system, solving intergroup conflicts, complying with affirmative action requirements, and training personnel to avoid skills obsolescence are met head on to provide insight into contemporary management challenges.
The overriding goal of the program is to prepare human resource and training managers and those in support services to enhance their organizations' effectiveness through the proper management of human capital. Students learn the importance of treating human resources as significant elements in the attainment of organizational goals and objectives. Additionally, students will participate in a learning environment that models human resource thinking by concentrating personal attention on their own professional development while using their work environment for immediate implementation.
