Why ODU for a minor in human resource management?

Human resource management is a specialized area in business focused on the effective management of an organization’s workforce. Every organization, from small start-ups to large multinational corporations requires skilled HR professionals. 

Our human resource management minor is ideal for students who want to complement their major with skills to manage the human side of organizations, fostering environments where individuals and teams can thrive.

You will take two foundational courses in human resource management and organizational behavior, and then choose two elective courses to gain specialized knowledge in areas such as employee compensation, HR analytics, performance management, and staffing.
