Riegel & Emory Human Resource Research Center

Center Home


The Riegel & Emory Human Resource (HR) Center is devoted to supporting research and education in the area of Human Resources.  The Center was founded in 1982 with the support of an endowment provided by the Riegel & Emory Corporation.  This endowment, combined with the support provided by members of the Riegel & Emory HR Advisory Board, has funded numerous research projects in the HR area.  Research topics funded by the Center include work values, teams in the multinational corporation, HR outsourcing, workplace dispute resolution, HR and the M&A process, and organizational restructuring.  Guided by the Advisory Board, the Center also works to promote education in the HR field.  Funding from members of the Advisory Board has been used to fund student fellowships and a wide-array of instructional initiatives.

A critical element to success of the Riegel & Emory HR Center has been the active involvement of the Advisory Board.  The Advisory Board works closely with members of the faculty to ensure that USC’s program and initiatives in the HR area are meeting the needs of students, organizations, and society.
