The University offers a bachelor of science (B.S.) in human resource development that prepares students to be human resource professionals in higher education, industry, business, government, and other agencies.

The Human Resource Development Program combines a core curriculum with directed electives that support the student's work background—or allow students to develop specialized areas of expertise. Content is based on the disciplines of education, business, psychology, and related behavioral sciences. Required studies in the major are drawn from the competency studies from the Association for Talent Development (ATD) http://www.td.org and the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM).
