The M.S. Program in Enterprise Risk Management recognizes the
interdisciplinary nature of business activity and integrates the
fields of insurance, finance, accounting and management in
order to prepare our students for careers in the increasingly
important field of risk management. The program reinforces the need
for risk to be managed at the strategic and operational levels of
the organization, with well-prepared managers who can guide an
integrated risk management process. The public expectation for
executive oversight of enterprise-wide risks has risen, and
companies across multiple industries are seeking graduates with the
ability and necessary skills to analysis and take risk when
needed.
With the introduction of this program, The Tobin College of
Business continues to build on its reputation as a local, national
and international leader in Risk Management education. Our
unique relationships, through our School of Risk Management,
provide us with
collaborative links to industry and professional groups in
enterprise risk management, as well as affording specialized
academic expertise.
This one year, 33-credit program is offered on a full-time basis
at our campus in Manhattan. Cohorts are admitted to the fall
term only.
