"OBHR Society was nothing short of amazing. It was a safe space to not just create events for the HR student body but to go through the uni life together. Joining OBHR Society was no doubt a great platform that have enabled me a holistic university experience and a greater understanding of the different aspect of HR."
- Vanice Chow, School of Business, Year 4
"Joining OBHR Society had been an extremely rewarding experience; it broadened my understanding of the field and the possible career opportunities, provided opportunities to learn from HR professionals across different industries, and most importantly, enabled me to connect with like-minded peers in school and develop a strong support system together."
- Tay Kai Hong, School of Business, Graduate
FAQ
The OBHR core modules are Human Capital Management, some electives include negotiating in management and business, and the psychology of managerial decision making
There are 2 aspects of the major itself: OB (Organisational Behaviour) and HR (Human Resources). You get to select from a basket of electives, and you can choose to select and specialise in either one or a mixture of both. Essentially, it is still a single major.
As a member, you would be able to receive first-hand information on our events and internships. You would also be eligible for welfare drives that may be held throughout the year.
There is no need to become an OBHR Major to join the society or participate in any of our events. Membership is free as well!
Nope, there are no weekly commitment for normal members, the only commitment is to come for an event if you have signed up for it. However, there will be weekly meetings for exco members.
