College Choice Releases Its 2016 Ranking for the Best Bachelor's in Human Resources Degree Programs
EUGENE, Ore., Sept. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- College Choice, a leading authority in college and university rankings and resources, has published its 2016 ranking for the Best Bachelor's in Human Resources Degree Programs.http://www.collegechoice.net/rankings/best-bachelors-in-human-resources-degrees/
Human Resource managers are notably in increasing demand, with more businesses demanding that these professionals have, at the very least, an undergraduate degree in this area. This is because HR professionals need a strong foundation in management, psychology, business, and sociology in order to learn how to create an effective and positive workplace for all employees. This necessity has led to the creation of this ranking.
Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice, went on to describe a number of environments that a human resource manager can work in, stating: "Just about any workplace you can imagine—law firms, hospitals, universities, restaurant chains, financial services offices—needs someone in charge of hiring new employees. Human Resource Managers are often the first ones called when a change in leadership or employee policy will go into effect, and they have incredible influence into how a business is actually run on a daily basis."
The College Choice 2016 ranking for the Best Bachelor's in Human Resources Degree Programs was designed by using a variety of factors readily available on individual school sites, U.S. News and World Report, as well as other educational statistics sites. The most important factors included a school's academic reputation, the program itself, student retention, and employment rate after graduation.
