MILR/MBA

What can the combination of master’s degree in Industrial and Labor Relations and an MBA do for you?

Our alumni who have earned both MBA and MILR degrees have a distinct advantage in today’s rapidly changing workplace.

Many pursue careers in high levels of human resource management, where having the whole picture of how organizations operate gives them a powerful understanding of the relationship between HR strategy and business strategy and the leadership skills to run an organization and have a respected voice in top management decision making. Likewise, those who focus on labor relations find that the MILR/MBA puts them on the fast track in their careers.

Others use the dual degrees in the consulting arena, where their depth of understanding of business combined with specialized knowledge about human resource management, labor relations, and other specialized knowledge gives them a powerful edge.
