Introduction
The Business Management Department provides studies in broad-based management education, allowing flexibility in varied management-level careers sought by private and public employers. The objective is to develop the student’s understanding of management as both an art and a science, together with managerial skills essential for positions of leadership and responsibility in today’s dynamic environment. The management major promotes a generalist interdisciplinary approach that prepares students to work in any business organization. It also allows students, in collaboration with their academic advisor to personalize their plan of study through specialization in a minor or a variety of business and non-business-related electives.
Students may take an emphasis in Human Resources Management. With workforce management becoming an increasingly prominent field throughout industries and workplaces worldwide, the Human Resources Management emphasis strengthens the business management major. Students are prepared for the management of employees at all organizational levels. Emphasis is on staffing, training, and development, labor relations, compensation and benefits, legal aspects of human resources management, and selection and recruitment. This is a highly recruited area for undergraduate students. The faculty advises students on the selection of courses for areas of concentration and monitors their academic progress.

Internship/Cooperative Education
Consistent with the expectations of employers and graduate schools, students are required to complete at least one significant work assignment for academic credit during their tenure at Hampton. An internship is typically a paid summer experience of two or three months, whereas, a cooperative education experience typically is for six months. These experiences enrich the student’s education by providing relevant perspectives to the theories and techniques covered in the classroom. Students who have internships and/or cooperative education experiences are more attractive to employers. The School of Business works closely with the Career Counseling and Planning Center and our corporate partners to enhance the number and quality of these internships and cooperative experiences; however, it is the responsibility of the student to secure such an experience.
