The CIRHR’s graduate programs rank among the best in North America and its faculty reflects the depth, breadth, and diversity of our university.

The program provides students with a theoretical background and knowledge of current developments in the field that will serve as a basis for careers areas such as a Human Resources Generalist, Recruitment Specialist, HR Consultant, Employment Equity Officer, Training and Development Consultant, Corporate Trainer, Policy Advisor in the Ministry of Labour, Union Representative and Labour Relations Specialist. The undergraduate program in IRHR is also a perfect platform from which to enter post-graduate programs in Industrial Relations and Human Resources, Law with a specialization in labour and employment, as well as policy and labour studies programs.The Work and Organization majors (IRW) adopt an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the changing nature of work as well as the operation of different types of organizations. Work and Organizations will provide the skills necessary to undertake the development and implementation of solutions to contemporary societal challenges through coordination of economic and social action in organizations and communities. IRW will meet the increasing demand among A&S students for access to courses on work and organizations that provide foundational knowledge in these areas while complementing and enriching their other chosen programs. Students will be able to navigate an evolving labour market upon graduation.
