The Rutgers Business School–Newark and New Brunswick (RBS-NNB) and the master of human resource management program offer a five-year degree program of 150 credits, which leads to the bachelor of science and the master of human resource management degrees (B.S./M.H.R.M.). To complete both degrees within five years, students should indicate their interest in this program when they apply to the RBS-NNB programs at the end of their third semester. As soon as possible, students should select the organization management major as their first choice of study.
The sooner students indicate that they wish to pursue the five-year program, the sooner they can receive advice on how to plan their schedules. Without careful planning, students may have difficulty completing the program in five years. Individuals may apply for the B.S./M.H.R.M. program during their junior or senior year, but they may not be able to finish the program in five years.
The program is divided into six parts: undergraduate liberal arts school area distribution requirements, RBS-NNB eligibility courses, RBS-NNB core courses, RBS-NNB electives, human resource management graduate core courses, and human resource management electives. To graduate with a B.S./M.H.R.M. degree, students must complete 120 credits at the undergraduate level (including courses that serve as equivalent to graduate-level foundation courses) and 30 credits in courses in which they are enrolled for graduate credit. Altogether, they will have acquired 150 credits.
