SHRM Student Chapter Logo

SHU-SHRM provides opportunities for students interested in human resources to network on a local level. We have regular meetings with scheduled programs designed to help members learn more about HR and the real world of business.

Elected student officers run the SHU-SHRM chapter with the assistance of a chapter adviser. We invite local business people to speak to the members about current developments in the business world and how they will impact future workers. We organize a variety of activities including company tours, student conferences, resume-writing and interviewing workshops, fundraisers, internship programs and social events. These activities allow students to learn more about human resource management while building relationships with local professionals and other students.

More than 450 affiliated SHRM student chapters operate on university campuses throughout the United States. SHU-SHRM is proud to become one of its newest affiliates. Speak to your adviser or contact us for more information.
