Human Resource Management at the College of Business

Students within the College of Business gain valuable human resource knowledge in and out of the classroom. The HR Edge Network invites top performing students to attend meetings where they learn from HR experts and engage in discussion during our events. 

Many executives in the HR Edge Network provide our students with valuable job positions, internships, and provide guest lectures in classes and in the SHRM student club. The Department of Management greatly appreciates our members contributions and commitment to CSU. 

“Participating in HREN as both a student and an intern has been an invaluable experience. It has given me the opportunity to connect with HR professionals, gain insights into industry trends, and contribute to meaningful events. Being part of the team organizing HREN has enhanced my leadership and communication skills while deepening my passion for HR.”

Student organizations

The CSU Fort Collins Student SHRM Chapter is for undergraduate and graduate students interested in learning more about the field of Human Resource (HR) Management and pursuing a career in HR. Our SHRM Chapter was formed in Spring 2007, serving CSU and the community for 12 years. 

“Joining the CSU HR Edge Network has been a truly transformative experience. It provided me with a deeper understanding of the role and responsibilities of an HR executive, offering insights that go beyond what a simple online search can reveal. Through the network, I connected with executives and industry professionals, enabling me to build valuable relationships and lay a strong foundation for my career beyond university.”
