Study & Career Opportunities
This is a unique qualification in Irish Higher Education. Most postgraduate Business Management qualifications focus on the successful running of an organisation as an ongoing concern, but few level qualifications in Business focus on the risk-based analysis of leadership within business and the pitfalls to be aware of in the successful navigation of business through inevitable turbulent times.

The primary objective of the MSc in Business Risk Management is to develop professionals who can take on enterprise risk challenges in today’s turbulent business world, enhancing business value by providing analytical and technological solutions that mitigate risk across entire business enterprises.

The Masters offers participants an opportunity to reflect on their professional practice and gain a theoretical and critical perspective of issues associated with Risk Management.

Graduates may pursue Level 10 (PhD) study opportunities upon successful completion of this programme.
