They will also be able to identify and develop appropriate risk management strategies as new challenges, opportunities, and needs arise in the future.
This degree program is designed so that students have the academic background needed for the professional certification tests of the leading professional financial risk management associations. These are the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) certification of the Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP) and the Professional Risk Manager (PRM) certification of the Professional Risk Managers International Association (PRMIA). Our program is an academic program that, while it covers the material needed for the FRM and PRM certifications, is not primarily an exam preparatory course.
