hi,
a master in HRM is a fully specialised program covering indepth the areas of HR.
an MBA might be a general program where u will cover all the major functions in anorganization.
similarly there are MBAs where u could specialise in the area of HR as well.
so the differences depends based on the program the business school is offering.
its based on ur future aspirations that u should select ur career path and the master program.

hi,
since the discussion is whether 2 go for a MSHRM course or for a MBA course, I think my point of view will be very important as I am pursuing the MSHRM course from ICFAI School of HRD, Hyd'bad.
The MSHRM course is a 2-year fulltime course which specializes in the field of HR, alongwith HR we are also given subjects like Micro-Macro economics,Marking mgmt,Financila mgmt, also we hve in the next sem-operation mgmt, alongwith these subjects we have subjects from the various topics of HR like Org behavior, HRM, Compensation administration, PMS,IR,Training and development...and so on.
this link will give you some more info about the course
http://icfai.org <link updated to site home>
now the difference between MBA in HR and MSHRM is that in MBA the first year is common for all the specializations and it has a lot of varied subjects, whereas in MSHRM the core subject is HRM alongwith an insight into some other fields.
thanks and regards,

Hi,
I once asked myself the same question, whether I should pursue MBA or a masters in HR. I finally decided to go for MBA as I didn't want to limit my option to only HR profession.
My GM who is also my mentor agreed with it & told me that as we go higher in the corporate ladder, an MBA will give you the advantage with its greater span of business knowledge. At the end of the day, you'll be using less of technical knowledge & more of business.

The difference is very fundamental. An MBA gives one a thorough grounding in all aspects of the business profession. An individual may concentrate in a particular area, but will still be required to take a certain number of core courses in finance, economics, accounting, marketing, MIS, and management. Electives will be used for your concentration. In the MS in HRM degree you will spend all your time on the principles of HR, from org design, to training, to everything else the HR profession covers. Are you a business major? If not, you will be required to take leveling courses to get you up to speed. If your undergraduate degree is in management or HR, the MBA would do you a world of good. Also, more and more of the trade journals are showing that HR professionals need to get an MBA to have any clout in the firm (that way they know about the financial and business aspects of the firm). If you are getting a degree in something else it may be best for you to pursue the HRM degree and after working for a while go back for the MBA.
