HEA 8400: Human Resources Management in Higher Education

3 Credit Hours
This class will provide a theoretical perspective and advanced knowledge of human resources methods and practices from the focal position of University administrators. The course is designed to offer authentic examples through case study discussions focusing on the human resources function (e.g., recruitment, selection, and induction; personnel administration; training, developing, and evaluating talent; succession & career planning; employee relations). These applications will be unique from those found in K-12 education. Students will practice critical analysis skills by deconstructing local, state, and national HR practices and policies and critiquing the methodologies of empirical human resources literature.

Note: This course may be cross-leveled with HESA 7400.
