Accredited by: CII
Despite challenging global economic conditions risk management is an area of growth across all types of organizations. There is an increased demand for qualified risk professionals due to the increasingly global nature of business coinciding with increased regulatory pressures and compliance.
GCU is the only University in the UK to offer this type of undergraduate degree, therefore, creating an opportunity to be a graduate in demand. During your studies, you will explore the applied risk management process from an organizational perspective covering areas such as the identification and management of strategic risks, managing ethics, compliance and conduct risks, business continuity management and project risk management.
The degree has excellent industry links with a key focus on the vocational aspects of risk management and is accredited by the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) and the Institute of Risk Management (IRM).
The programme places a strong emphasis on employability, transferable skills, and engagement with industry to give 'real world' context, including regular talks from industry related guest speakers and corporate sponsors.
For new international students, orientation events start on 14 September 2018 . This extra time is specifically designed to assist new international students in settling into the UK and GCU prior to the start of general student induction and teaching.
There will be a whole host of fun and informative activities taking place during this period, including campus and city tours, as well as welcome events where you can meet other international students.
Our approach to the learning, teaching, and assessment of our students is tailored to the academic needs of our students while preparing them for the job market, as well as their ability to operate independently as lifelong learners.
Our curriculum is designed to develop our student's knowledge and understanding of risk management as an academic discipline and to enable them to reflect logically and critically on risk theory and practice. In parallel with this, the curriculum is designed to promote employability. These skills are embedded throughout the programme and a wide range of methods are used to ensure the acquisition of professional, practical and personal development skills.
Direct industry awareness and experience is central to our teaching, through the use of guest lectures and presentations at all levels. This is particularly important for our new students, as it helps them understand the sector in which they will eventually find employment.
A member of the Risk academic team acts as a careers tutor for students and assists them with their employability skills and graduate job search. This tutor acts a focal point for both graduate job and student placement opportunities.
Between Year 3 and Year 4, our students have opportunities to undertake paid summer placements in a diverse range of organizations, providing invaluable experience in the development of both professional competence and the graduate skills and attributes required by employers.
Our BA(Hons) Risk Management programme is accredited by the CII, the world's largest professional body for insurance, risk and financial services.
