Talent Acquisition and Employment - University Human Resources (UHR)About the Department
NC State University is a nationally recognized, major research university. We’re a Research 1 university, recognized worldwide for our big ideas and bigger impact. And we’re a public university — one that believes in community, sharing what we learn and serving the greater good. Since 1887, we’ve strived to offer world-class teaching and research. Today, we’re ranked in the top 1% of universities on the planet.
University Human Resources encompasses the functional areas of talent acquisition, classification, compensation, benefits, employee relations, learning and organizational development, HR information management and analytics, communications, and continuous improvement. These services are directed, managed, and provided by the division for over 6,000 staff and approximately 2,000 faculty at NC State. In order to support the academic, research, and extension mission and goals of NC State, the division must implement a strategic university-wide approach for all human resources functions. The division provides leadership to the university administration, managers, and employees by being a progressive and innovative provider of human resources services.

Collectively, we are responsible for ensuring that NC State is able to effectively recruit, hire, and employ an effective workforce to support the advancement of NC State University’s mission, vision, goals, and strategic initiatives.
