The MIRHR offers flexible full-time or part-time enrollment options. This professional program equips students with cutting-edge knowledge and methodologies in industrial relations and HR management through an interdisciplinary examination of workplace dynamics.
The MIRHR curriculum prepares future professionals with contemporary best practices in the field, employing multidisciplinary perspectives to study employment relationships. The program emphasizes developing critical analytical and empirical skills essential for modern practitioners.
