There are a number of schools in the field of industrial and labor relations or human resources—Cornell, Michigan State, Minnesota, Illinois, Rutgers—all good programs. I think what distinguishes Cornell and ILR is the history. It’s been around a long time. It’s a separate school. It has a faculty leadership team that’s fantastic. It has its own program—it’s not part of a business school. It has a focus on training professionals. It has a relationship with industry that is probably unparalleled among all universities that offer human resource degrees.

You\'ll complete six required courses from one of four concentrations:

Human Resources and Organizations

Labor Market Policy

Collective Representation

Dispute Resolution

If you think you\'d like a career in the business world, but prefer to center your career on people rather than on marketing, finance, or accounting, the MILR may be a good choice for you.

About HRIR: The Field of HRIR

The field of Human Resources and Industrial Relations (HRIR) encompasses all aspects of the employment relationship, including human resource management, labor relations, and other areas. This is a vibrant and dynamic field of academic study and professional practice. Important questions for both research and practice include:

• How can organizations be successful in the global economy of the 21st century by becoming learning organizations that successfully empower its employees and unleash their intellectual capital?

• How can human resources move beyond an administrative function to become a strategic business partner and how can the field of HRIR provide leadership as organizations reinvent themselves with a focus on core competencies?

• As the workplace of the future will be more diverse than ever, how can employment become more family-friendly, flexible, and responsive to diversity and information technologies?

• What institutions and public policies are appropriate for balancing the sometimes competing interests of workers and employers in a global, competitive economy?

Answering these and other central questions requires a multi-disciplinary grounding in economics, psychology, business, law, and other disciplines, the ability to blend theory and practice, the skills to balance multiple interests, and an appreciation for human behavior and the broader economic, financial, technological, ethical, global, and cultural environment.

Overview

The Master of Arts (M.A.) in Human Resources and Industrial Relations (HRIR) is a professional degree preparing students for private and public sector employment in human resource management, labor relations, and related fields. This full-time program is designed to be completed in two academic years (four semesters). Widely recognized as one of the top three programs in the country, the first half of the program consists of six required core courses that provide a comprehensive and rigorous foundation across the entire field of HRIR. The second half of the program consists of elective coursework in HRIR and related fields (such as finance, accounting, operations management and other areas). Through this balanced HRIR curriculum, students gain a thorough understanding of both contemporary practices and the underlying theories that are necessary for a successful career. Students explore HR issues within the broader economic, financial, technological, ethical, global, and cultural environment to give them a rich foundation for decision-making. The living business laboratory of the Twin Cities provides internships, field projects, and mentors from dynamic, global companies.

Minnesota HRIR students benefit from state-of-the-art classroom, computing, and library facilities. The Industrial Relations Center Reference Room is one of a small number of comprehensive reference libraries specializing in HRIR. The Carlson School\'s Business Career Center assists students in their job search across the country and around the world and manages on-campus interviewing. The graduate HRIR programs attract individuals from throughout the United States and the world. Minnesota\'s HRIR M.A. program is among the oldest and largest in the country with 140 full-time M.A. students.

The HRIR M.A. program has a longstanding commitment to diversity. Entering HRIR students have undergraduate degrees in many subjects ranging from the fine arts to engineering. The most common majors include psychology, business, economics, human resource development, and speech communication. Previous work experience is desirable, but not required. Minority enrollment in the full-time M.A. program is 18 percent.

The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in Human Resources and Industrial Relations (HRIR) is a research degree preparing students for academic careers teaching and conducting research. This degree harnesses the strength of the faculty\'s research prowess, as evidenced by its outstanding international reputation. This doctoral degree program is a full-time program which typically involves two or 2.5 years of coursework, seminars, and preliminary examinations, and 1-2 years of dissertation work. The program is designed to be completed in four years although some take an extra year, especially those without any previous graduate coursework.

Three or four new students generally enroll each year. To maintain the focus needed to complete the degree, the faculty discourages outside employment and offers financial support through research and teaching assistantships, which cover tuition and pay a stipend, and fellowships.

HRIR faculty produce a large volume of high-quality research. Research spans such topics as motivation, incentives, behavior of individuals in the workplace, compensation, benefits, testing, staffing, training, workplace safety, the organization of work and human resource practices, unemployment, the labor market and demographic trends, unions, labor market institutions and policy, including international aspects of these and other topics. HRIR faculty are at the forefront of their respective fields, and are active in academic organizations and on editorial boards. The interests of successful Ph.D. students overlap with these faculty interests.

Fisher College MLHR students learn more about the fundamentals of human resources theory and practice-attracting, retaining, compensating, motivating, and managing employees in contemporary organizations. They are prepared to assume key roles in human resources, organizational development, and change management. They gain the analytical and decision making skills that enable them to become effective leaders in the private firms and government agencies they will serve. Founded in a tradition of excellence, the Fisher College MLHR degree program is committed to keeping pace with the demands of a growing and increasingly global market economy. With the assistance of prominent human resource executives from companies such as Wendy\'s International; Olsten Staffing Services; Motorola; AT&T; The Limited; Cargill; and Drake, Beam, and Morin, the MLHR Graduate Studies Committee has established the following vision for the MLHR degree program: "The Master\'s in Labor and Human Resources at the Ohio State University is the foremost program in educating and developing individuals with the analytical and process skills, as well as the functional content knowledge needed to be effective internal human resource consultants and organizational policy makers who increase the effectiveness of their organizations." In recent years, the MLHR Graduate Studies Committee, with the help of its advisory board, completed a major review of the MLHR curriculum which was fully implemented Autumn 2001. The new enhancements reflect the vision of the program by stressing the analytical, leadership, and business skills today\'s human resource professionals need to deal effectively with staffing, compensating, training, and labor relations challenges they will face in an ever-changing business environment. <-- #EndEditable -->

Introduction
The mission of the school is to create and disseminate knowledge that fosters a better understanding of the nature of employment and work in modern society, promotes harmony and cooperation between management and labor, and helps to improve employment systems and relationships. In pursuit of our mission, SMLR faculty conduct research, deliver credit and noncredit programs, and provide
assistance to corporations and labor organizations. SMLR has an outstanding, internationally known faculty, who are leaders in their respective fields. Faculty contribute to their professional communities by conducting cutting-edge research, disseminating new knowledge through teaching, publishing scholarly books and articles, and providing their services to a variety of public and private organizations, government and non-governmental agencies. The school offers an undergraduate degree, two master’s degrees, and a doctoral degree. Most credit programs are on campus, but some are offered off campus at partnering organizations in the United States. • 2004 SMLR Convocation Information • Welcome from the Dean • School History Introduction In 1997, the Institute of Management and Labor Relations (IMLR) marked its 50th anniversary. It was on June 19, 1947, that New Jersey Governor Alfred Driscoll signed into law Assembly Bill 250-A. Passed against the backdrop of the great postwar strike wave that engulfed the United States, this legislation formally established the IMLR. Its primary mission was to promote "harmony and cooperation between management and labor, and greater understanding of industrial and labor relations, thereby to enhance the unity and welfare of the people of the state." In order to carry out this assignment, the IMLR was authorized to "establish programs in order to develop new material and techniques to aid in carrying on the educational activities."(1) Labor education at Rutgers University predated the establishment of the IMLR by many years. Without question, Rutgers was one of the early pioneers in the field, along with such institutions as the Brookwood Labor College, the Bryn Mawr Summer School for Women, Milwaukee Labor College, and the educational extension services of the University of California. However, a precise date cannot be fixed owing to changing perspectives of what actually constituted a labor education program. By broadly defining labor education to mean workers\' education, or the entry of nonmatriculating students onto the college campus to attend university-level classes, one could point to the year 1891. In that year, the Extension Department (more commonly known as "Night School") was established at Rutgers College. Its mission was twofold: to uplift by giving nontraditional students the benefit of exposure to university-level instruction in academic (liberal arts) courses; and to generate revenue for Rutgers and the faculty who taught the courses. Ironically, the early extension curriculum offered little in the way of vocational and technical training for workers. Moreover, organized labor\'s aloofness to the objectives of worker\'s education explains why the early education extension programs developed in fits and starts. Clinging to the doctrine of "voluntarism" and economic action through collective bargaining, Samuel Gompers and the AFL remained skeptical of the university\'s role as a positive agent for the immediate economic and social advancement of workers—particularly in light of business ties to most institutions of higher learning. Finally, the Panic of 1893 dried up the pool of potential "working class" students.(2)
