SLU LAW’s master’s program in human resources law explores the rights and responsibilities of employers and employees. You’ll also gain specialized expertise in legal topics of most interest to human resources professionals, including the prohibition of discrimination; collective bargaining relationships; regulation of employee benefits, workplace health and safety; and arbitration and mediation of labor and employment disputes.

SLU LAW’s human resources law master’s program is a 30-credit program for non-J.D. students looking to gain expertise in the law relating to human resources. The program is designed as either a one-year full-time course of study, or a multi-year part-time program.

Because credits earned through the program cannot be transferred for credit toward a J.D. program, the master’s in human resource law is designed for human resources professionals who want to study and understand the law but are not interested in becoming practicing attorneys.
