Connection to Industry

These leaders help students to understand how HR earns a “seat at the table,” where strategic decisions get made, how HR professionals can add value to these decisions, and the types of career strategies that are most effective for HR professionals.
Applied Projects
Students connect classroom learning with real-world experience through the completion of applied projects.
Guest Speakers
Strategic HRM faculty incorporate the expertise of guest speakers in their classes.
Global Business Trips
Students in the Wisconsin MBA have the opportunity to participate in the Global Business Program, which includes several annual student-planned/led study tours. During these tours, students are accompanied by Wisconsin MBA staff and meet with senior business executives, government leaders, and educators in key business locations around the world.
