It concerns ongoing, never-ending strategies to evaluate and mitigate potential disruptions, and encompasses resiliency planning, prevention, crisis management, business continuity management, and technology recovery. As such, the ability to contribute to enterprise risk planning and execution is an important skill for many business leaders. Thus, this programme is designed for business owners or people that want to upskill towards Senior Executive Levels within larger Organisations.

Hide-What will I be able to do when I finish the programme?
This is a unique qualification in Irish Higher Education.

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.
