Master of Science, Human Resource Management--Tarleton State University

Program Prerequisites (Leveling Requirements)

After an MS, Human Resource Management applicant is admitted to the College of Graduate Studies, his/her transcript, application, essay, and test scores will be evaluated by the COBA Graduate Admissions Committee. This committee evaluates the student’s educational background and work experience to determine what leveling requirements (program prerequisites) may be needed. Leveling requirements will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may be satisfied by taking graduate or undergraduate courses or departmental subject area examinations or through other appropriate means. A student whose undergraduate degree was not in business or who does not have relevant professional experience should expect to be required to take some undergraduate courses (that cannot be counted toward the 36 hours for the degree) to be prepared for successful graduate study in business.

Leveling requirements may be met by taking undergraduate courses, CLEP tests, or DANTES tests. In addition to these specific course requirements, students must demonstrate acceptable skills in the use of word processing, spreadsheet, database, presentation software, and the Internet. Leveling requirements must be satisfied by the time a student completes 12 hours of graduate credit in the MS, HRM program.
