Module overview

This is a holistic module because it emphasises that its constituent topics dealing with diverse aspects of risk management are highly interconnected. Mastery of the subject is conceived as requiring a strong understanding of these interconnections. For example, someone lacking awareness of risk psychology and rick culture topics is likely to have poor insight into what risk management can offer as a decision support function in strategic and other organisational contexts. The lecture sequence and broader student experience are carefully structured with this in mind – and exam questions are designed to offer scope for demonstrating holistic knowledge. It is hoped this will equip students with a highly versatile risk management skillset which provides employers the flexibility they expect from the contemporary risk management function.
