Human Resource Management Major Description


The management of human resources is grounded in both economics and the behavioral sciences. Both views are required if one is to be effective in human resources management. The Kellogg School has combined strengths in management and organizations and industrial relations to offer a major combining these approaches. The combination of fields goes beyond the traditional definition of the personnel function.
