Degree Programs
With degree programs ranging from baccalaureate to Ph.D., there are multiple opportunities within each area of study, allowing you to focus on your specific career goals.
Internships
When you graduate, it's likely that your first priority is finding a job. And one of the best ways to gain experience and insight into the kind of job you're looking for is through an internship experience. Learn how HRSM supports our students through this critical process.
Study Abroad
The industries we support are global industries, and what you learn in the classroom is only the beginning. Close your book and open your mind to the world of possibilities available to you through study-abroad (or "study away" if you want to stay in the good ole' U.S. of A).
Research Opportunities
One way to influence positive change is to take a business problem and solve it by developing a new solution. That's exactly what our student and faculty researchers do! Develop personal connections with award-winning faculty and become part of our trailblazing industry research.
