Online courses are designed by Cornell faculty and led by both faculty and senior HR practitioners. Students gain personal interaction with faculty through small, seminar-style discussions and online chats while integrating coursework into their schedule at their own pace.
Residential sessions in beautiful Ithaca, NY bring students together for immersive workshop-style learning, collaboration with faculty, peers, and industry leaders, and the chance to further cultivate professional networks.
Throughout the program, students develop a capstone case project and apply learned concepts in real-time to address strategic issues in their organizations, such as business and HR strategy, and the role of HR in organizational change.
