Master of Science - Human Resource Development

The Master of Science (MS) degree in Human Resource Development (HRD) is designed for professionals seeking to lead and implement talent development, talent management, and performance strategies within diverse organizational contexts. With a strong emphasis on data and value, the program guides students in evaluating assumptions, clarifying problems or opportunities, and designing and executing interventions such as learning strategies, onboarding programs, process improvements, e-learning solutions, and performance evaluations. Students assess the impact and value of these strategies through the interconnected lenses of change, learning, and performance.

The HRD degree program directly addresses these challenges by collaborating with companies to create situated learning experiences that apply theoretical concepts in real-world settings. Through this approach, students are able to elaborate on key concepts, transfer learning to practice, gain professional experience, and expand their networks. The program maintains a strong and relevant connection between academic learning and the practical work performed by HRD professionals in organizations.
