About University Human Resources

University HR at Stanford manages the university's workforce strategies. 

We support the university’s mission through strategic, innovative, and flexible policies, practices, programs, and services that:

  • Attract, develop, reward, and retain a diverse and talented workforce
  • Foster a productive work environment where people feel valued and respected
  • Support the changing nature of work and the work environment
  • Add value and reflect good stewardship of resources
  • Are fair, ethical, and legally compliant

We partner closely with the HR Managers in each school and unit (view PDF listing) to effectively execute human resources priorities for our valued workforce.
