JWMI Master of Business Administration Human Resources Concentration

The JWMI MBA Human Resources Concentration offers coursework with a broad business and leadership perspective and a focus on people management, recruitment, organizational change and strategy. This approach makes it an excellent fit for a student who is interested in the human resources field but wants the flexibility of an MBA credential and a focus on leadership. In the JWMI MBA Human Resources Concentration, students explore how to apply effective human resource strategies to compete in today's corporate environment.

The Society of Human Resource Managers (SHRM) has reviewed this program and acknowledged that it aligns with its curriculum guidelines for human resource degrees. SHRM is the largest and most widely recognized human resource professional organization in the world.

While the program curriculum covers much of the content of the Professional in Human Resources (PHR) and Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) certification exams, the program does not specifically prepare students to take the exams nor does completion of the program guarantee any SHRM certification
