The Masters in Labor and Human Resources Program in the Fisher College of Business at The Ohio State University has recently developed and implemented a new graduate curriculum in human resources. Impetus for the new curriculum was the formation of a corporate advisory board. The new curriculum emphasizes analytical and leadership skills as well as the functional content knowledge needed for graduate students to become effective internal human resource consultants. Both the need for this type of curriculum and the process used to develop the new curriculum is reviewed. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
