The MSc Risk Management has been the industry standard for over a decade being based upon expertise from a department that offers the only undergraduate risk management programme in the UK.

Your year studying Risk Management will give you a broad based focus on corporate or business risk management. Students will develop systematic approaches to risk management across both the public and private sectors.

Candidates will be introduced to how risk and uncertainty is needed in all aspects of management including: strategy, investment decisions, projects, asset utilisation, business continuity, corporate security, health & safety, legal liabilities and risk financing.

Essentially, you will be given key opportunities to develop into a professional risk manager and learn how to facilitate the risk management process.

The course will include sessions with key industry experts and is guided by professional accrediting bodies and allows you to gain exemptions from the Chartered Insurance Institute and the Institute of Risk Management.

Sessions will be taken by experts from Aon, Zurich Insurance and RBS Insurance amongst others.

Prospects

The course will allow you to develop skills in the area of risk management and prepare you for a job as a risk manager, risk and insurance manager, risk analyst, risk co-ordinator or clinical risk manager with the emphasis varying from organisation to organisation, sector to sector.

All of our Risk Management courses have a core of strategic and operational risk, risk analysis and modelling and insurance and risk management.

The course addresses corporate governance, business continuity and crisis management as well as global aspects of risk management, and features sessions to help your personal and professional development, and develop the key skills required to work in a 21st century organisation.

Candidates should hold either a UK Honours degree 2:2 or equivalent or relevant professional qualification and work experience in a risk management position.
