My university suggested I switch from a “Business Administration” degree with a focus on Human Resources to a “Technical Management” degree with a focus on Human Resources because the Tech Management degree track makes better use of my transfer credits from another college (enough so that I will graduate 2 semesters sooner). However, the woman I spoke to could not explain to me what the difference was between the two degrees, and the university website is somewhat vague. Perhaps there is a Technical Management major out there who could explain it to me?
I attended college between 1993-1999 (off and on as my schedule permitted). I was actually paying my own way through college and the debt just became too overwhelming. My major was Interior Design (not decorating). I know that major is going to be too time intensive…considering where I am in my life, now. I’m married, have an elementary aged child, no family living nearby, husband who works many hours, and I am working full time as well. I basically need to start over. I know that many of my credits are just too old now or just won’t apply to a degree in Business or Nutrition, etc. I need a program that A. is near or less than $3000/year, B. 100% online (no A.A. or A.S. Degree as a requirement), and C. will be possible for me to earn more than $30K/year. I am interested in Nutrition (not cooking), Computer related programs (IT), possibly Speech, possibly business, possibly human resources. Thank you for any input you may have to offer.
I am a parent of 3 kids. I will be a first time student this fall at a jr. College. I am trying to figure out my major now so I wont waste any more time. (Im already starting late) My children will be out of High School soon and I will be going back to work.(I am now self employed from home) Because I will be transferring to another school for my Bach. degree I am trying to sort things out. I am considering two different schools to transfer to. One of them is Athens State. The other school is UAH in Huntsville, Al. Because the programs are different, I need some help. Please be sweet, as ,this is all new to me. I did not have an opportunity to go to college after High school as a lot of people do.
UAh says online that it offers a Bach of science degree in B.A. It then lists the major disciplines as Accounting, management, marketing and finance (I am interested in Management ). It then divides the curriculum into 4 concentrations: gen mangagement, human resources, aquisition,
Is/will the job market be good?
I will graduate with a B.Comm Double Major in Marketing and Management and probably go back an extra year for a Human Resource Certificate what can I expect in the real world ?
Job in HRD in cool,you can get chance to do a number of things which are there in the field of HR.Initially you would have to start with recruitment and as you grow you will be given a number of responsibilities like handling of payrolls,training and development,employee relations,perfomance appraisals and much more.After you are an expert in every vertical then you get the HR generalist profile that is being Jack of all trades.donot think it is hectic,it is the other way round, i,e it is intresting.
Wish you best of luck and a shining career ahead.
