Cornell ILR

The ILR School's mission is to prepare workplace leaders, inform employment and labor policy, and improve working lives.

Founded in 1945 as the New York State School of Industrial and Labor Relations and known today as ILR, the school offers undergraduate, graduate and professional education. 

ILR's focus has become more international and extends beyond labor-management relations to the world of work—from human resource management, labor economics and law, and compensation to organizational behavior, disability and conflict resolution.
