Question by : Trying to find a excellent online Master’s Program (in Human Resources)?
I’m looking to further my education in Business Management. I have a Bachelor’s but want to get my Master’s, specializing in Human Resources. I’d like an online program simply because I don’t have a lot of time to really go to a school. I was looking into U of Phoenix and Kaplan, but after reading reviews, I don’t reckon that’s the way to go. Anyone know of any excellent school that offer online Master’s in Human Resources?

Thank you!!!

Stay away from online for profit universities and unaccredited universities. Most colleges now offer online classes, night classes, and Saturday classes. I would say go to a state college, because they are more respected right now. I am not knocking these colleges, but they do not have the best reputations.

Question by : Which major should I be? Human Resources Management OR Health Sciences?
I cannot choose, but I have to make a final choice in two weeks or I will be in college another semester.

If I take the Health Sciences route, I will go to become a Physician Supporter. I like health care and all of its areas.

If I go towards Human Resources Management, my undergraduate courses would be simpler for me, as I perform much better in business courses. I would go into a business field, higher education, or regime work.

Which way should I go?
Also, I do not have time to do both. I don’t even have the time to just do PA prereqs and HR.

Your best bet is at a large state college. You work in their personnel department and teach. It gives you a fantastic discount on course costs plus you’ll get to know your instructors and advisers on many levels.

Question by Beth: Masters in Student Affairs or Organizational Devp.and Human Resources?
A year ago I started applying to master’s programs in student affairs in higher education. After some acceptions and some rejections, I finished up having to place it off until this spring. Now with the economy, I’m trying to figure out what to do. I have been reading that colleges are cutting funding and not hiring new people. I’ll be amassing a excellent amount of debt for this degree, and the pay in the field is not very high. Would I be better off to try and get an Med in Organizational Development and Human Resources (my undergrad school has this program). For those of you in student affairs, what would you do? How is the future for this field (especially career analysis and academic advising.)? There is probably more opportunity in human resources. Also, should I go to a school where having an assistantship doesn’t cover tuition?

Best answer:

Answer by Serendipity
You will find more job opportunities with the human resources degree because in addition to colleges you can apply for work in other fields.

I worked in college administration for years and it is my opinion that some drastic cutbacks are in the works, so colleges and universities are unlikely to be doing as much hiring as in the recent past.

You don’t need a title for a resume since everyone knows what a resume is. But, as a critioque, your work experience doesn’t stand out – you list duties, not responsibilities. For example, when you say “plot graveyards” – how did you plot them, what was your role – did you oversee a team of people plotting them, did you work alone (self-management), did you use a GIS/GPS system to do this, how much of the plotting of the project was left to you. Similarly, for the customer service part, did you have th authority to choose on solutions to customer problems without necessarily getting a supervisor’s approval. I would cut down a bit on the education (give the real basics…degree, maybe GPA, school and time in school) and beef up the experience part (especially with things for which you could take initiative…back up that claim to ability to operate in a quick changing background). I bet you have a lot of skills you are hiding in there.

Question by jarica: Is psychology a excellent degree for working in Human Resources?

Best answer:

Answer by Anna P
Yes, but you may need to get a masters in order to really get into the field. You could start off in a very junior position if there are job openings hard to fill in your geographic area. Sometimes HR consultants will hire BA psych majors if you have statistics and assessment coursework. Then later a company would hire you.
