2012 - 2013 Curriculum
The program curriculum consists of eleven (11) courses, which includes nine (9) core, and two (2) elective courses. In addition, two (2) foundation courses are required. Students with appropriate academic background may be permitted to waive the two foundation courses.
Waivers are generally not granted if the corresponding undergraduate course(s) were completed more than seven years prior to application. Waivers are not granted for non-academic prior learning, and are determined solely on the basis of the student's undergraduate or graduate record. All waivers require written approval by advisor.
Students are expected to be familiar with office/management level software.
Students may take courses in any sequence subject to the following general requirements:
- Students must complete the two foundations courses early in their program as these are prerequisite courses to core courses and electives.
- Students must observe prerequisites. Courses taken without the proper prerequisites will not be applicable to the student’s degree requirements unless written approval is obtained from the student’s advisor.
- MGMT 985 Seminar in Human Resource Management is the culminating course in the student’s program. Registration requires prior written permission from the Dean of Graduate Studies. Students will not be permitted to fulfill this requirement with a course transferred from another institution. The seminar can only be taken in the last semester of study. Exceptions, requiring written advisor approval, may be made for students taking an elective course over the summer.
