Risk Management

Minor in the McCombs School of Business

Certificate Risk Management2

The purpose of the Risk Management minor is to prepare students to successfully meet the current and existing risk challenges of the business environment.

The program is both structured and flexible to allow students to pursue interests in discipline-specific risks as well as general risks that any enterprise might face. The management of risk is increasingly important in the USA and worldwide. For-profit and not-for-profit enterprises (from charities to government) find themselves confronting risks and the resulting financial consequences daily. Business managers from all areas of expertise need to be prepared to prevent and address risk in order to survive–the ultimate goal of most all enterprises.
