ILR is comprised of five departments (including Organizational Behavior, Human Resource Studies, Global Labor and Work, Statistics and Data Science, and Economics) that operate in a highly collaborative and collegial environment. The Human Resource Studies and Organizational Behavior departments are part of a rich intellectual environment for management scholars at Cornell, with strong ties to SC Johnson College of Business (comprised of the Johnson Graduate School of Management, Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management, and Nolan School of Hotel Administration) as well as the Sociology and Psychology Departments.
