Darla Moore School of Business

  • Center for Risk and Uncertainty Management

Working to improve decision-making under uncertainty

The Risk and Uncertainty Management Center provides knowledge, frameworks, tools and experiences that lead to better decision-making in situations involving a wide variety of risks confronting organizations. In addition to gathering insights and sharing best practices and research with corporate partners, the center helps create opportunities for students to develop leading-edge skills in risk management and decision-making through real-world project assessment and strategy development that factor in both opportunity and risk using a range of analytical tools and methods.

Our goals include: producing graduates with analytical and qualitative decision-making skills and a holistic, enterprise-wide perspective of risk; supporting risk management research across a variety of disciplines; and facilitating interaction between businesses, faculty and students on important risk management topics.
