A Bachelor of Arts in Human Resource Management (HRM) is a multidisciplinary major that draws heavily from business strategy, psychology, economics, and sociology. A Bachelor of Arts degree in Human Resource Management gives students the knowledge and skills to: help organizations get the most value from their employees, help managers understand how to lead their employees most effectively, and help employees understand how to succeed in the modern organization.

Entry level workers who have graduated with a bachelor’s degree in HRM usually enter formal or on-the-job training programs. Later, they may advance to a managerial position, overseeing a major element of the human resource function. A master's degree or higher is desirable for individuals seeking these and general top management positions.
