Overview
- Globalization, growing workforce diversity, and the changing role of unions are just some of the challenges facing employees and employers in the dynamic field of human resources.
- An education in labor and human resources can help you understand all aspects of the employment relationship in order to help your organization value its most important asset — its workforce.
- The Bachelor of Arts in Labor and Human Resources at Pennsylvania State University is designed for students who want to concentrate on the roles of various relationships in the human resources and employment relations environments.
- Graduates can prepare for positions in human resources, labor relations, training, employment law, and occupational analysis. Others may continue their education and work toward a master's or doctoral degree.
- The bachelor of arts program relies on a curriculum steeped in the social sciences, humanities, and language as a supplement to the prescribed labor and human resources courses. It helps you explore the world of work from the perspectives of sociology, rhetoric, and literature.
