WE ARE THE SHRM Student Chapter

On average, it takes a college graduate three to six months after graduating to find full time employment in their field. We want to help our UVU students in the HR program avoid this gap by providing opportunities to meet with and learn from professionals in the HR field. We also encourage students to gain leadership experience and improve business skills. The chapter is open at all students, regardless of major, because every student can benefit from the values and activities SHRM offers. Reach out to us about upcoming activities and how you can get involved.
