Curriculum:

The program contributes to the university's Tier One mission by producing leading-edge research published in top-tier journals, contributing to the community/region via sharing of best practices and provision of human resources management services to organizations in both the private and public sectors, and producing a steady stream of Ph.D.'s. In line with the university's energy and health initiatives, we have strong ties with organizations in the energy and healthcare industries and produce considerable research affecting practice in both, with a focus on safety- and stress-related topics.

Current and past organizational partners include the City of Houston, ExxonMobil, Men's Wearhouse, Willbros, Houston Transtar, and Aramco.
