Human Resources Management

Catalog description

The course takes a practical view that integrates the contributions of the behavioral sciences with the technical aspects of implementing the HR function in the ‘real world.’ Certainly, not everyone who takes this course will become a human resource professional, although they will learn a great deal about those roles. Indeed, for many students this course will be the only HR course they take. However, all managers, no matter what their specialization, play an integral role in carrying out HR policies and practices in their organization and they have to deal with their Healthcare human resources department. Each week, students will analyze case studies about how different factors at play in the industry affect their role.
