PRINT VERSIONBachelor of Business Administration - Human Resources Major
Students in Mount Royal’s Bachelor of Business Administration – Human Resources degree program build on a foundation in business theory to focus on the principles and practices of human resource management. As students are introduced to strategic human resource management, they develop skills in the various disciplines of HR from delivering recruitment and training programs through to implementing effective employee relations programs and participating in organizational planning. In addition to the core human resource courses, students also complete courses in accounting, management, and general business.
Four years of academic study in the BBA - Human Resources program can be combined with three optional, paid co-op work terms. Human Resources students must apply for admission to the co-operative education option, complete core academic course work prior to each work term, meet GPA requirements, and successfully complete an Orientation to Co-operative Education course, which provides them with pre-employment training and eases their transition to work. All of these requirements combine to ensure students are able to make genuine and valuable contributions in the workplace.
