人力资源(Human Resources简称HR)，常用来指“人力资源管理”，企业管理中主要部门职能之一，着重于帮助现代企业解决企业人力资本运用的问题，其基本原则是：在正确的时间把正确的人安排在正确的岗位上。人力资源管理的主要职能包括：人员招募;培训及开发;薪酬及福利管理等。

美国大学有人力资源管理硕士的学校还是少之又少的，前100的学校里不超过15所。而且所在学校里所属的院系不完全一样，有的属于劳动关系学院(School of Labor and Employment Relation )例如伊利诺伊大学香槟分校，主要是侧重培养学生在各领域的人力资源专业技能，学生毕业后进公司、组织或政府机构都可以，有的属于商学院(School of Business)例如俄亥俄州立大学和明尼苏达大学，重点培养学生在企业的人力资源管理能力由于人力资源管理在划分时可能在不同的院校，因此申请者考GRE或者GMAT都可以。美国公认的前5名有Cornell University，University of Minnesota-Twin Cities，University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign,Michigan State University和Rutgers,the State University of New Jersey-New Brunswick。除此之外，Pennsylvania State Univeristy-Park, Ohio State University, Purdue University以及Texas A&M University也是不错的选择。

具体讲解下三所学校：

You may take such a course without graduate credit during your first semester in the master’s program, but doing so may delay completion because of course sequencing.

对GPA的要求：

What GPA is needed for admission?
Entering students at LER have an average GPA of 3.5, but our admission process is not formula driven. We have students with a wide range of undergraduate GPAs.

平均GPA是3.5，但学院并不没有要求。

How do you determine GPA?
Your last two years of undergraduate work at the time of application is used to determine your GPA. If you take more than four years to graduate, all coursework beyond the second year is used in the GPA determination.

后两年的GPA是作为主要参考。

What GMAT score is needed for admission?
Admitted students who take the GMAT receive an average composite score between a 580-650.

GMAT平均分580-650

托福的要求：

LER requires a student have at least a 590 PBT, 243 CBT, or 96 iBT score to be considered for admission. However, the University of Illinois has minimum standards for full admission. You must have a 613 PBT, 257 CBT or 103 iBT score to be admitted on full status. If your score is between 590-612 written, 243-256 computer or 96-102 iBT, you may be admitted on limited status. This means that you must take the English Placement Test (EPT) upon your arrival on campus. This test will determine if you need to take any English as a Second Language (ESL) classes at the University. 托福要求96，但103以上是full admission。如果在96-102之间需要做语言测试。

接受IELFS，但没有说具体录取要求。
