Who We Are

At the Human Resource Management Association (HRMA) at USC, our mission is to empower students to thrive academically, professionally, and personally by fostering growth, collaboration, and opportunity. As the official USC student chapter of SHRM and PIHRA, HRMA provides triple the resources, triple the networking, and triple the support for students navigating their journey in human resources.

The Human Resources Management Association at the University of Southern California (HRMA at USC) was founded in 2020 as the very first student organization affiliated with Bovard College. Since then, we’ve grown into a vibrant, virtual community where students from every background can explore HR, connect with industry professionals, and prepare for meaningful careers in the people space. Along the way, we’ve also become a place where students build lasting friendships and genuine connections.

Through engaging panels, workshops, and networking opportunities, HRMA offers a welcoming space where students can grow, share ideas, and form friendships that last well beyond USC. Membership is open to all undergraduate and graduate students, whether you’re just curious about HR or already passionate about making a difference in the workplace.

Fight On! ✌️
