Students should consult the Rutgers New Brunswick Undergraduate Catalog for descriptions of courses applicable to the major from Psychology, Economics, and Sociology as well descriptions of applicable quantitative courses.
Introduction to Human Resource Management (37:533:301) is a prerequisite for the Human Resource Management Bachelor of Arts Program and for the Core HRM Courses. Students must achieve a grade of "C" or higher in this course before the major is declared and take any other Core HRM Course. Grades of "C" or better must be earned in all courses used to fulfill the requirements of the Human Resource Management major. Students may take Organizational Behavior or Employment Law at the same time as Introduction to Human Resource Management.
