Introduction
The Master of Science in Human Resource Development (MSHRD) is for those who want to acquire expertise in developing and enhancing individual and organizational learning, talent, and leadership capabilities. Human Resource Development professionals are skilled at improving workplace performance through identifying performance gaps and designing strategic, evidence-based solutions to improve individual, team, and organizational performance. You will be prepared to lead in learning and development, talent development, organization development, leadership development, inclusion and diversity, and HR.
