Human Resource Development Master's Program (M.S.)
The Master of Science in Human Resource Development (HRD) is an
interdisciplinary program designed to provide students with specific
knowledge and practical skills within a variety of human resource
fields. The curriculum is designed to meet the needs of individuals with varied academic backgrounds and professional experience.
The program emphasizes the application of theory and research
to practical human resource issues within business, government,
nonprofit organizations and education. The program consists of two
tracks: General and Educational Leadership.
The General Track is designed for individuals seeking to enter
the human resource field, mid-career professionals seeking opportunities
for professional development and career advancements, working adults
seeking a career change, and recent undergraduates who wish to pursue
graduate study. Applicants do not need prior work experience in
human resources to be eligible for admission. Students may complete the HRD General Track degree in a traditional classroom environment or fully online.
The Educational Leadership Track is designed for certified teachers and other licensed professionals working in schools who aspire to become educational leaders and administrators at local and state levels. This interdisciplinary program is approved by the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) for those seeking certification as Administrator I.
