\"Excellence<\/p>\n

In its latest national recognition, Florida International University\u2019s (FIU) College of Business has received a top ranking for its graduate program for human resources management.<\/p>\n

\"#2HR.com ranked the Master of Science in Human Resource Management<\/a> #2 for the Masters Program with Emphasis on HR in its 2016 Leadership Excellence Awards, released last week.<\/p>\n

HR.com\u2019s recognition reflects the excellence of faculty, the quality of our students and our curricular innovations,\u201d said Marc Weinstein, director of the 12-month Master of Science in Human Resource Management program and clinical professor, Department of Management & International Business.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis achievement has been years in the making, with our recruitment of world-class faculty that provide our students with the skills needed to be leaders in the the HR field.\u201d<\/p>\n

Admission to the program is highly competitive, Weinstein said, with nearly four applicants for every space. He also noted that entering students average seven years of professional experience.<\/p>\n

That strong level of expertise, combined with active mentoring from the local HR community and insights students receive in the classroom, recently contributed to a first-place finish for the graduate program\u2019s case competition team at the HR Florida conference in January.<\/p>\n

Since its founding in 2002, 450 students have completed the MSHRM program. Most of these students have remained in the Miami area, with many ascending to leadership positions in their organizations. Graduates also serve the profession and the community, Weinstein said, holding leadership positions in the Greater Miami Society of Human Resource Management (GMSHRM), the Miami Chamber of Commerce, and numerous other civic organizations. Strong support from program alumni and the wider HR community has opened additional opportunities for students and graduates of the program.<\/p>\n
