UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Students traveled to Spain for a week-long immersive experience as part of their course work for programs offered through the Penn State School of Labor and Employment Relations and Penn State World Campus.
The elective course, LHR 499: Comparative Labor and Employment Relations, includes a curriculum about human resources across the globe and an international week-long trip for students to observe what they have been learning. The trip fulfills credits toward the Master of Human Resources and Employment Relations program and undergraduate degrees in labor and employment relations.
Since 2017, the Penn State School of Labor and Employment Relations has offered online learners the chance to travel abroad to compare human resources and employment relations between the United States and another country.
