Its vision is to build a world of work that works for all.
LU SHRM Student Chapter
Our mission is to glorify God through providing our members opportunities for:
- Professional development
- Service to the community
- Support to promote the human resource management profession
The LU SHRM offers development opportunities such as resume workshops, interview workshops, and networking events with HR professionals. Because human resource skills are beneficial to management as a whole, any School of Business student, regardless of the cognate, can benefit from the teaching of human resource professionals.
As an affiliate, LU SHRM has received national merit awards for its work in the community and contributions to student professional development.
