2019-2020 Catalog

Human Resource Management, Bachelor of Science

(Placed on moratorium beginning Fall 2019)

The Bachelor of Science in Human Resource Management is designed to prepare students to develop skills that will enable them to enter the field of human resource management. The Human Resource Management program combines a significant business management component with an emphasis on developing strong human resource, managerial, and organizational knowledge, skills, and abilities. Students will explore behavioral approaches to deal with organizational and managerial situations. The major prepares the students to pursue a graduate level program.

 

Students may declare a Human Resource Management major upon admission to Presentation College. New students admitted on probation may declare a Human Resource Management major but will not be admitted to the program until they have completed the Success Academy requirements.

 

A growth plan will be developed for Human Resource Management students who fail to maintain a minimum cumulative 2.50 GPA in their business courses in any given semester. This signed growth plan will be provided to the students as well as copied in their official academic file. This growth plan will address:

 

  1. The process the students will take to increase their GPA to meet graduation requirements.
  2. The length of time the student has to increase their GPA to meet graduation requirements.

Graduation
